Reason


 If you follow reason far enough it always leads to conclusions that are contrary to reason
  Samuel Butler

 In quiet places, reason abounds
  Adlai E. Stevenson

 Little boats should keep near shore
  Benjamin Franklin

 Most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do.
  James Harvey Robinson

 Nothing does reason more right, than the coolness of those that offer it: For Truth often suffers more by the heat of its defenders, than from the arguments of its opposers
  William Penn

 Once the anchor of reason has been cut, one's craft may go anywhere. One may become a St Francis or equally a Hitler.

 Once the people begin to reason, all is lost
  Voltaire

 Our passions are the winds that propel our vessel. Our reason is the pilot that steers her. Without winds the vessel would not move and without a pilot she would be lost.

 People are generally better persuaded by the reasons which they have themselves discovered than by those which have come in to the mind of others.
  Blaise Pascal

 Reason commands us far more imperiously than a master. When we disobey the latter we are punished, when we disobey the former we are fools.
  Blaise Pascal

 Reason does not work instinctively, but requires trial, practice, and instruction in order to gradually progress from one level of insight to another
  Immanuel Kant

 Reason is a crutch for age, but youth is strong enough to walk alone.
  John Dryden

 Reason is a faculty far larger than mere objective force. When either the political or the scientific discourse announces itself as the voice of reason, it is playing God, and should be spanked and stood in the corner.
  Ursula K. LeGuin

 Reason is a supple nymph, and slippery as a fish by nature. She had as leave give her kiss to an absurdity any day, as to syllogistic truth. The absurdity may turn out truer.
  D.H. Lawrence

 Reason is a very light rider, and easily shook off
  Jonathan Swift
