    You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel!

    Rationalists are admirable beings, rationalism is a hideous monster when it claims for itself omnipotence. Attribution of omnipotence to reason is as bad a piece of idolatry as is worship of stock and stone believing it to be God. I plead not for the suppression of reason, but for a due recognition of that in us which sanctifies reason.
    Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)

    A propositional sign, applied and thought out, is a thought. A thought is a proposition with a sense.
    Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
