    “So often has my judgment deceived me in my life, that I always suspect it, right or wrong,—at least I am seldom hot upon cold subjects. For all this, I reverence truth as much as any body; and ... if a man will but take me by the hand, and go quietly and search for it ... I’ll go to the world’s end with him:MBut I hate disputes.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “When a person doesn’t understand something, he feels internal discord: however he doesn’t search for that discord in himself, as he should, but searches outside of himself. Thence a war develops with that which he doesn’t understand.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “The philosophic spirit of inquiry may be traced to brute curiosity, and that to the habit of examining all things in search of food.”
    —W. Winwood Reade (1838–1875)
