Benjamin Disraeli1 quote
The secret of success is constancy of purpose. — Benjamin Disraeli · 1872Isaiah Berlin1 quote
There exists a great chasm between those, on one side, who relate everything to a single, central vision, one system more or less coherent or articulate, in terms of which they understand, think and feel...

The first kind of intellectual and artistic personality belongs to the hedgehogs, the second to the foxes... Dante belongs to the first category, Shakespeare to the second. — Isaiah Berlin · 1953Ron Swanson1 quote
