logic quotes

Bertrand Russell: 

Everything is vague to a degree you do not realize till you have tried to make it precise. 
"The Philosophy of Logical Atomism"


David Borenstein: 

Feelings are not supposed to be logical. Dangerous is the man who has rationalized his emotions.

Dorothy Thompson: 

The kind of intelligence a genius has is a different sort of intelligence. The thinking of a genius does not proceed logically. It leaps with great ellipses. It pulls knowledge from God knows where.

Edward Abbey: 

There is science, logic, reason; there is thought verified by experience. And then there is California.

Gloria Steinem: 

If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn't it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?

Oliver Goldsmith: 

Logicians have but ill defined
As rational the human mind.
Logic, they say, belongs to man,
But let them prove it if they can.

Rita Mae Brown: 

If the world were a logical place, men would ride side saddle.
