Famous quotes containing the word evidence:

    No further evidence is needed to show that “mental illness” is not the name of a biological condition whose nature awaits to be elucidated, but is the name of a concept whose purpose is to obscure the obvious.
    Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)

    Jim Bakker (b. 1940)

    Strict rules of evidence would destroy psychoanalysis and literary criticism.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
