The schizophrenic has had their window kicked in, the magician has got a body of law – probably most of it bollocks, it doesn't matter. The magician's got a system into which the alien information that will be pouring into him or her will be fitted. (Alan Moore)

Religion must mainly be a matter of principles only. It cannot be a matter of rules. The moment it degenerates into rules, it ceases to be a religion, as it kills responsibility which is an essence of the true religious act.

Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar

It is the consistency of the information that matters for a good story, not its completeness. Indeed, you will often find that knowing little makes it easier to fit everything you know into a coherent pattern.

Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

Opinion is like a pendulum and obeys the same law. If it goes past the centre of gravity on one side, it must go a like distance on the other; and it is only after a certain time that it finds the true point at which it can remain at rest.
