Quote by Francis Bacon

"Knowledge itself is power."

"Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested."

"Truth is like a torch, the more it's shook the more it shines."

"Nature itself cannot be ordered about except by obeying her."

"The best part of living is knowing you survived."

"The world needs heroes."

"Life is too short to live poorly."

"I'd rather be an optimist and be wrong than a pessimist and be right"
