  • Logic Quote #1

    All people, whether Aspie or neuro-typical are predisposed by their society to make guesses, jump to conclusions and then seek to defend those conclusions, regardless of logic or changing circumstance. This is sloppy, illogical thinking which may not hinder your life too much, under normal circumstances. But if you want to be a great detective, then such thinking will absolutely ruin your chances.

    Alexei Maxim Russell

  • Logic Quote #2

    All things can be achieved but not by all means, for some means are not proper

    Constance Chuks Friday

  • Logic Quote #3

    All things can be achieved but not through all means, some means are not proper

    Constance Chuks Friday

  • Logic Quote #4

    All true are not truthful.

    Raheel Farooq

  • Logic Quote #5

    Almost everything carried to its logical extreme becomes either depressing or carcinogenic.

    Ursula K. Le Guin

  • Logic Quote #6

    An argument in apologetics, when actually used in dialogue, is an extension of the arguer. The arguer's tone, sincerity, care, concern, listening, and respect matter as much as his or her logic - probably more. The world was won for Christ not by arguments but by sanctity: What you are speaks so loud, I can hardly hear what you say.

    Peter Kreeft

  • Logic Quote #7

    An open mind, in questions that are not ultimate, is useful. But an open mind about the ultimate foundations either of Theoretical or of Practical Reason is idiocy. If a man's mind is open on these things, let his mouth at least be shut. He can say nothing to the purpose. Outside the Tao there is no ground for criticizing either the Tao or anything else.

    C.S. Lewis

  • Logic Quote #8

    And intuition is what people is what people use in life to make decisions.But logic can help you work out the right answer.

    Mark Haddon

  • Logic Quote #9

    And the Buddha pointed out that his confusion was justified, for 'the dharma is profound, difficult to see, difficult to understand, peaceful, excellent, beyond the sphere of logic, subtle, and to be understood by the wise'. The reason for this is that it is not readily comprehended by one who holds a different view and has different learnings and inclinations, different involvements and instruction. It is clear from this statement that the conception of nibbana in beyond logical reasoning, not because it is an Ultimate Reality transcending logic, but because logic or reason, being the 'slave of passions', makes it difficult for one who has a passion for an alien tradition to understand the conception of nibbana.

    David J. Kalupahana

  • Logic Quote #10

    And yet Praecursoris is not punished the same way, only because it is not practical, and he is needed for breeding?

    Naomi Novik

  • Logic Quote #11

    Annie clouded up. For a second, he thought she was going to erupt, and flinched. She saw that...and got control of herself with an visible effort. She took three deep breaths, each longer than the last, and her features became serene.
    All at once it seemed totally clear to Mike that she was right and he was nuts - that his ingenius theory was nonsense, childish, fantasty bullshit. His conviction evaporated, and he was ashamed. He felt his cheeks grow hot, groped for words with which to backtrack -
    I have to admit I have no better explanation for the the facts, Annie said slowly.
    Again, Mike did an emotional instant 180. Holy shit -
    She held up a hand. I am going to think now. Very hard, for a long time. You will be as quiet as possible while I do. She got up from the computer, went to the bed, and lay down. Think yourself, or read, or play games with the headphones on, or go Topside if you like. She clasped her hands on her belly, closed her eyes and appeared to go to sleep

    Spider Robinson

  • Logic Quote #12

    Anything that thinks logically can be fooled by something else that thinks at least as logically as it does.

    Douglas Adams

  • Logic Quote #13

    Are we not all one flesh? One mind? A sword brings power. Knowledge brings coin. With either, one can make blood reckoned, can earn names. The only thing that differs between a noble man and a working man is that they have now, while the other does not have it yet. Such things can be taken. They are always taken.

    Chris Galford

  • Logic Quote #14

    Arguments cannot be answered by personal abuse; there is no logic in slander, and falsehood, in the long run, defeats itself.

    Robert G. Ingersoll

  • Logic Quote #15

    Aristotle was convinced that a trained memory helped the development of logical thought processes.

    Janet M. Tavakoli

  • Logic Quote #16

    As a matter of fact, with all his wit, humor, raillery, persiflage, he was the profoundest logician that ever appealed to the intellect of an American audience. There was logic even in his laughter. He passed the cup of mirth, and in its sparkling foam were found the gems of unanswerable truth.

    {Kittredge on the great Robert Ingersoll}

    Herman E. Kittredge

  • Logic Quote #17

    As hatred is defined as intense dislike, what is wrong with inciting intense dislike of a religion, if the activities or teachings of that religion are so outrageous, irrational or abusive of human rights that they deserve to be intensely disliked?

    Rowan Atkinson

  • Logic Quote #18

    As many critics of religion have pointed out, the notion of a creator poses an immediate problem of an infinite regress. If God created the universe, what created God? To say that God, by definition, is uncreated simply begs the question. Any being capable of creating a complex world promises to be very complex himself. As the biologist Richard Dawkins has observed repeatedly, the only natural process we know of that could produce a being capable of designing things is evolution.

    Sam Harris

  • Logic Quote #19

    As the dew drop slides down the leaf to wet the soil, they call it fall in love. Yet, do we know the way up from the way down?

    R. N. Prasher

  • Logic Quote #20

    At the time I thought the winner in an argument was the person who put forward the most logical support for his position. Of course, this isn't true. Human history, from gardening disputes to genocide, is full of examples of people with the most decent, well-argued stance ending up with their face in the mud in front of a naked display of power.

    Mark Barrowcliffe

  • Logic Quote #21

    atheism leaves no room for excuses

    Travis Culliton

  • Logic Quote #22

    Behind your reaction is a feeling that whatever is 'true' must be able to be expressed logically. Men, in particular, have a tendency to confuse correct logic with an accurate assessment of a situation. Be careful of any situation that you have to reason through logically, because if you have to work to reason it out, you're probably missing something.

    L.E. Modesitt Jr.

  • Logic Quote #23

    Being and not being are not two different realities, but two different aspects of the same reality.

    Raheel Farooq

  • Logic Quote #24

    Being' cannot be derived from higher concepts by definition, nor can it be presented through lower ones. But does this imply being no longer offers a problem? Not at all. We can infer only that 'Being' cannot have the character of an entity. Thus we cannot apply to Being the concept of 'definition' as presented in traditional logic, [...] which, within certain limits, provides a justifiable way of characterizing 'entities'.

    Martin Heidegger

  • Logic Quote #25

    Beware of logic.

    Kiana Davenport

  • Logic Quote #26

    Billions of years ago God was creating universes and life; thousands of years ago he was creating angry floods, sin-saving human sacrifices and audible burning bushes. Today he occasionally appears on a piece of toast. To state that God has become reclusive over the years would be an overwhelming understatement.

    Trevor Treharne

  • Logic Quote #27

    Books have a unique way of stopping time in a particular moment and saying: Let’s not forget this.

    Dave Eggers

  • Logic Quote #28

    Braith turned and saw three of her cousins sunning themselves on boulders. Like lizards. Lizards in human form.

    “What are you doing?” Braith asked.

    “Enjoying the suns,” replied one.

    “It gives our scales a lovely bright hue,” said another.

    Braith blinked. “Except you’re all in your human form. So how does that help your scales?”

    They stared at her for several seconds before one stated, “You’re a bit of a know-it-all, aren’t you?”

    “How is that . . .” Braith shook her head. She wouldn’t go from arguing with one idiot to arguing with three.

    G.A. Aiken

  • Logic Quote #29

    But all propositions of logic say the same thing. That is, nothing.

    Ludwig Wittgenstein

  • Logic Quote #30

    But in the end, black can never be white, one plus one must always equal two, and Mara Lynn was a normal little girl.

    Jake Vander Ark
