Logic Quotes (page 11)

Philip K. Dick quote: "To save one life, Mr Tagomi had to take two. The logical,..."
To save one life, Mr Tagomi had to take two. The logical, balanced mind cannot make sense of that Philip K. Dick
Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men's blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency. Daniel Burnham
Milan Kundera quote: "Art arises from sources other than logic." (p.32)"
Art arises from sources other than logic." (p.32) Milan Kundera
I do not feel any contempt for an atheist, who is often a man limited and constrained by his own logic to a very sad simplification. Gilbert K. Chesterton
Beware of faking: people will believe you. People believe those who sell lotions that make lost hair grow back. They sense instinctively that the salesman is putting together truths that don't go together, that he's not being logical, that he's not speaking in good faith. But they've been told that God is mysterious, unfathomable, so to them incoherence is the closest thing to God. The farfetched is the closest thing to miracle. Umberto Eco
She saw the normative life of the planet, business people crossing streets beneath glass towers, the life of sitting on buses that take you logically to destinations, the unnerved surface of rolling plausibly along. Don DeLillo
If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world. C. S. Lewis
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "Life [had] replaced logic."
Life [had] replaced logic. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Some things are governed by common sense. Putting buttons on the front of a shirt is a matter of logic, since it would be very difficult to button them up at the side, and impossible if they were at the back. “Other things, however, become fixed because more and more people believe that’s the way they should be. I’ll give you two examples. Have you ever wondered why the keys on a typewriter are arranged in that particular order? Paulo Coelho
I remember one English teacher in the eighth grade, Florence Schrack, whose husband also taught at the high school. I thought what she said made sense, and she parsed sentences on the blackboard and gave me, I'd like to think, some sense of English grammar and that there is a grammar, that those commas serve a purpose and that a sentence has a logic, that you can break it down. I've tried not to forget those lessons, and to treat the English language with respect as a kind of intricate tool. John Updike
You could say all you liked about reason and logic and common sense and imagination, but when the chips were down the one skill you needed was the ability to think about absolutely nothing whatsoever. Mark Haddon
Ethan Coen quote: "It's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human..."
It's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart. Ethan Coen
Lin Yutang quote: "In contrast to logic, there is common sense, or still better,..."
In contrast to logic, there is common sense, or still better, the Spirit of Reasonableness. Lin Yutang
The world is ruled by such dreams, dreams of impassioned hearts, and improvisations of warm lips, not by cold words linked in chains of iron sequence, --- not by logic. The heart with its passions, not the understanding with its reasoning, sways, in the long run, the actions of mankind. William Kirby
The logic of the symbol does not express the experiment; it is the experiment. Language is the phenomenon, and the observation of the phenomenon changes its nature. Carlos Fuentes
