“ Ralph J Cudworth: The true knowledge or science which exists nowhere but in the mind itself, has no other entity at all besides intelligibility; and therefore whatsoever is clearly intelligible, is absolutely true. #Intelligence and Intellectuals#Intelligence and Intellectuals

“ Ralph J Cudworth: Sense is a line, the mind is a circle. Sense is like a line which is the flux of a point running out from itself, but intellect like a circle that keeps within itself. #Mind#Mind

“ Ralph J Cudworth: Now, we deny not, but that politicians may sometimes abuse religion, and make it serve for the promoting of their own private interests and designs; which yet they could not do so well neither, were the thing itself a mere cheat and figment of their own, and had no reality at all in nature, nor anything solid at the bottom of it. #Politicians and Politics#Politicians and Politics

“ Ralph J Cudworth: Knowledge is not a passion from without the mind, but an active exertion of the inward strength, vigor and power of the mind, displaying itself from within. #Knowledge #Knowledge

“ Ralph J Cudworth: If intellection and knowledge were mere passion from without, or the bare reception of extraneous and adventitious forms, then no reason could be given at all why a mirror or looking-glass should not understand; whereas it cannot so much as sensibly perceive those images which it receives and reflects to us. #Intelligence and Intellectuals#Intelligence and Intellectuals

“ Ralph J Cudworth:Truth is the most unbending and uncompliable, the most necessary, firm, immutable, and adamantine thing in the world. #Belief#Belief

“ Ralph J Cudworth: Now all the knowledge and wisdom that is in creatures, whether angels or men, is nothing else but a participation of that one eternal, immutable and increased wisdom of God, or several signatures of that one archetypal seal, or like so many multiplied reflections of one and the same face, made in several glasses, whereof some are clearer, some obscurer, some standing nearer, some further off. #Wisdom#Wisdom
