November 10

“Partial views grow perilous, not when they are held firmly, but when they are held as if they were universal.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
“Since the value of words must change with widened or contracted thought, no formula expressed in words can be exhaustive.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
“Words which at one time sum up earlier experience become at another time centres, as it were, round which new and foreign thoughts crystallise.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
“To claim completeness for our opinions is to abandon the encouragement of progress; and on the other hand, difficulties frankly met reveal new paths of truth.”

Bishop WESTCOTT
