More From William Penn

Hazard has conditioned us to live in hazard. all our pleasures are dependent on it. even though i arrange for a pleasure, and look forward to it, my eventual enjoyment of it is still a matter of hazard. wherever time passes, there is hazard.
Hazards Looks May
Bold ideas, unjustified anticipations, and speculative thought, are our only means for interpreting nature: our only organon, our only instrument, for grasping her. and we must hazard them to win our prize. those among us who are unwilling to expose their ideas to the hazard of refutation do not take part in the scientific game.
Mean Winning Games
In this world that god (or mother nature) created, it is always hazard and novelty-hazard and novelty-which assert themselves, thereby rendering notions of fixity absurd. incongruously enough, however, when we allow ourselves to fully accept uncertainty, to embrace and cultivate it even, then we actually can begin to feel within ourselves the presence of an absolute. the person who cannot welcome ambiguity cannot welcome god.

Wisdom is a condition of consciousness rather than an attitude of mind. wisdom is that state of being in which an individual finds himself when realization has tinctured and transmuted all attitudes and opinions. a wise man is one who has experienced wisdom, wisdom in this sense being a mystical experience.
Wise Attitude Men
Passions often produce their contraries: avarice sometimes leads to prodigality, and prodigality to avarice; we are often obstinate through weakness and daring through timidity.

There is a sort of jealousy which needs very little fire; it is hardly a passion, but a blight bred in the cloudy, damp despondency of uneasy egoism.
