“He is no wise man that will quit a certainty for an uncertainty”
Samuel Johnson
“The quest for certainty blocks the search for meaning. Uncertainty is the very condition to impel man to unfold his powers.”
Erich Fromm
“If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts: but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.”
Francis Bacon Sr.
“Another certainty points to the uncertainty of who will be in second place, Lourdes Flores or Alan Garcia. It will be a photo finish.”
Alfredo Torres
“For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.”
Vincent van Gogh
“The self-confidence of the warrior is not the self-confidence of the average man. The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness. The average man is hooked to his fellow men, while the warrior is hooked only to infinity.”
Carlos Castaneda
“Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out”
Vaclav Havel
