A man lives by believing something: not by debating and arguing about many things.
Thomas Carlyle
According to this way of arguing, there will be no true principles in the world; for there are none but what may be wrested and perverted to serve bad purposes, either through the weakness or wickedness of men.
Jonathan Mayhew
