Opinion Quotations
Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems, in my opinion, to characterize our age.
Albert Einstein
Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.
Thomas Jefferson
There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion.
Winston Churchill
Public opinion in this country is everything.
Abraham Lincoln
Arguments are extremely vulgar, for everyone in good society holds exactly the same opinion.
Oscar Wilde
In all matters of opinion, our adversaries are insane.
Oscar Wilde
The public is the only critic whose opinion is worth anything at all.

Mark Twain
The rule is perfect: in all matters of opinion our adversaries are insane.
Mark Twain
