Language is a form of human reason, which has its internal logic of which man knows nothing.
Levi-Strauss, Claude
The much vaunted male logic isn't logical, because they display prejudices -- against half the human race -- that are considered prejudices according to any dictionary definition.
Figes, Eva
What is it that brings to It the adoration of millions from all over the world? You will be convinced that the basic reason for this is the fact that this is the Supra-worldly Divinity in Human Form.
Sathya Sai Baba
Money and credit are as much human contrivances as bicycles, and as liable to expansion and modification as any other sort of prevalent but imperfect machine. And how will the new republic treat the inferior races? How will it deal with the black? how will it deal with the yellow man? how will it tackle that alleged termite in the civilized woodwork, the Jew? Certainly not as races at all. It will aim to establish, and it will at last, though probably only after a second century has passed, establish a world state with a common language and a common rule. All over the world its roads, its standards, its laws, and its apparatus of control will run. It will, I have said, make the multiplication of those who fall behind a certain standard of social efficiency unpleasant and difficult… The Jew will probably lose much of his particularism, intermarry with Gentiles, and cease to be a physically distinct element in human affairs in a century or so. But much of his moral tradition will, I hope, never die. … And for the rest, those swarms of black, and brown, and dirty-white, and yellow people, who do not come into the new needs of efficiency? Well, the world is a world, not a charitable institution, and I take it they will have to go.The whole tenor and meaning of the world, as I see it, is that they have to go. So far as they fail to develop sane, vigorous, and distinctive personalities for the great world of the future, it is their portion to die out and disappear. The world has a greater purpose than happiness; our lives are to serve God's purpose, and that purpose aims not at man as an end, but works through him to greater issues.
Wells, H. G. (Herbert George)
Reason itself is fallible, and this fallibility must find a place in our logic.
Abbagnano, Nicola
Man always has two reasons for the things he does; the logical one and the real one.
Unknown, Source
Reason has always existed, but not always in a reasonable form.
Karl Marx
Reason transformed into prejudice is the worst form of prejudice, because reason is the only instrument for liberation from prejudice.
Bloom, Allan
"If we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed."
McCandless, Christopher
The real reason to run a race is not to win the race but to test the limits of the human heart.
Steve Prefontaine
