Let's Be Reasonable!

In the words of Brand Blanshard: "So far as one is governed by reason, one's conclusions will follow the evidence without being coloured by feeling or deflected by desire, and one's conduct as well as one's thinking will be ordered by principle." (Reason and Analysis, 1962)

That's One Wise, Old (Fictitious) Indian!

"Papa says if you don't watch it people will force you one way or the other, into doing what they think you should do, or into just being mule-stubborn and doing the opposite out of spite."
"Chief Bromden," in Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
