We call a man a bigot or a slave of dogma because he is a thinker who has thought thoroughly and to a definite end.

A radical generally meant a man who thought he could somehow pull up the root without affecting the flower. A conservative generally meant a man who wanted to conserve everything except his own reason for conserving anything.

White... is not a mere absence of colour; it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black... God paints in many colours; but He never paints so gorgeously, I had almost said so gaudily, as when He paints in white.

A businessman is the only man who is forever apologizing for his occupation.

In truth, there are only two kinds of people; those who accept dogma and know it, and those who accept dogma and don't know it.

He who will not reason, is a bigot; he who cannot is a fool; and he who dares not is a slave.
