The Prophets accept all agony and trust it For the water has never feared the fire.
Rumi
Accepting
Angels dance only with
Angels dance only with You, Beloved and only before You do I bow in adoration. You may accept me or not but I will be at your feet forever.
Rumi
Learn the alchemy true
Learn the alchemy true human beings know. The moment you accept what troubles you’ve been given the door with open.
Rumi
God (in His mercy)
God (in His mercy) accepts false coin.
Rumi
Work on your stony
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease; your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
What ever the course
What ever the course of our lives, we should recieve them as the highest gift from the hand of God, in which equally reposed the power to do nothing whatever for us. Indeed, we should accept misfortune not only in thanks, but in infinite gratitude to Providence, which by such means detaches us from an excessive love for Earthly things and elevates our minds to the celestial and divine.
Galileo Galilei
So far as hypotheses
So far as hypotheses are concerned, let no one expect anything certain from astronomy, which cannot furnish it, lest he accept as the truth ideas conceived for another purpose, and depart from this study a greater fool than when he entered it.
Nicolaus Copernicus
I accept no principles
I accept no principles of physics which are not also accepted in mathematics.
Rene Descartes

The first precept was never to accept a thing as true until I knew it as such without a single doubt.
Rene Descartes
These long chains of
These long chains of perfectly simple and easy reasonings by means of which geometers are accustomed to carry out their most difficult demonstrations had led me to fancy that everything that can fall under human knowledge forms a similar sequence; and that so long as we avoid accepting as true what is not so, and always preserve the right order of deduction of one thing from another, there can be nothing too remote to be reached in the end, or to well hidden to be discovered.
Rene Descartes
