Famous quotes containing the words historical and/or reasoning:

    This seems a long while ago, and yet it happened since Milton wrote his Paradise Lost. But its antiquity is not the less great for that, for we do not regulate our historical time by the English standard, nor did the English by the Roman, nor the Roman by the Greek....

    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    No passion so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
