| Quote:What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.[Bertrand Russell] Quote:To listen closely and reply well is the highest perfection we are able to attain in the art of conversation. [Francois de La Rochefoucauld] Definitions of: closelyDefinition: In a close manner.Definition: Secretly; privately. |
