The virtue of making two blades of grass grow where only one grew before does not begin to be superhuman.

Henry David Thoreau

And he gave it for his opinion, "that whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together.

Jonathan Swift

What really makes science grow is new ideas, including false ideas.

Karl Popper

Make two grins grow where there was only a grouch before.

Elbert Hubbard

This will sound like I grew up on another planet, except for those people who are past 55, 60 maybe. When I was growing up, my mother and her generation basically felt that you should only work as a way of passing time until you got married and had at least two children. And the only careers that were open for women at the time was teacher or nurse - which are fantastic careers, I mean fantastic and I actually am a former math teacher.

Karl Popper

It seems to me that the thing that makes the theater worthwhile is the fact that it attracts so many people with ideas who are constantly trying to share them with the public.

Brooks Atkinson

My own ideas on the mechanism of catalytic phenomena were very different from those at one time commonly held, ideas which I no doubt owed to the influence of the illustrious teacher who had guided my first steps in chemistry nearly twenty years before - I refer, of course, to Berthelot.

Paul Sabatier

My dad was also a teacher until he was 34. I think there is a basis in reality. But I'd only done two jobs before I was an actor. I worked in a petrol station and I worked in a supermarket.

Domhnall Gleeson

The clearer the teacher makes it, the worse it is for you. You must work things out for yourself and make the ideas your own.

William Fogg Osgood

Absence makes the heart grow fonder and tears are only rain to make love grow.

Ray Charles

My teacher, my great cello teacher Leonard Rose, was such a great cellist, and nurturing man, very patient. But I grew up not only admiring him, but obviously Casals, Rostrotovich, Jacqueline du Pre, and many others, including many of my peers and contemporaries.

Yo-Yo Ma

The ideas gained by men before they are twenty-five are practically the only ideas they shall have in their lives.

William James

I grew up and learnt to hold my own. My mum was doing two people's jobs. It makes you grow up early. There's less people to talk to, less close people, innit? You're going to end up being lonely because you think a bit more.
