Quotes
It is wrong always, everywhere, and for anyone, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence.
William Kingdon Clifford, The Ethics of Belief (1877)
Logic is a law which must be obeyed, and man realizes himself only in so far as he is logical. He finds himself in cognition.All error must be felt to be crime. And so man must not err.
Otto Weininger, Sex and Character (1903), p. 158
