Famous quotes containing the words blind, james and/or campbell:

    The improver of natural knowledge absolutely refuses to acknowledge authority, as such. For him, skepticism is the highest of duties; blind faith the one unpardonable sin.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    Better risk loss of truth than chance of error—that is your faith-vetoer’s exact position. He is actively playing his stake as much as the believer is; he is backing the field against the religious hypothesis, just as the believer is backing the religious hypothesis against the field.
    —William James (1842–1910)

    What though my wingèd hours of bliss have been,
    Like angel-visits, few and far between?
    —Thomas Campbell (1777–1844)
