    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)

    Like a French poem is life; being only perfect in structure
    When with the masculine rhymes mingled the feminine are.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
