“Who Weapons put into a Mad-Man's Hands,
May be the first the Error understands.”

“I think if you put an infallible weapon into man's fallible hands there is always a threat that something's going to go wrong.”

“The weak have one weapon: the errors of those who think they are strong.”

“My mind is incapable of conceiving such a thing as a soul. I may be in error, and man may have a soul; but I simply do not believe it. What a soul may be is beyond my understanding.”

“Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of the men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.”

“Custom may lead a man into many errors; but it justifies none.”

“If I am mad, it is mercy! May the gods pity the man who in his callousness can remain sane to the hideous end!”

“It is one thing to show a man that he is in error, and another to put him in possession of the truth.”

“To understand this for sense it is not required that a man should be a geometrician or a logician, but that he should be mad.”

“The most formidable weapon against errors of every kind is reason.”
