Somehow, in painting I try to make some logic out of the world that has been given to me in chaos.
Grace Hartigan
Image
Cold completely introspective logic places a philosopher on the road to the abstract. Out of this empty, artificial act of thinking there can result, of course, nothing which bears on the relation of man to himself, and to the universe.
Albert Schweitzer
Image
Instinct leads, logic does but follow.
William James
Image
The science of logic never made a man reason rightly, and the science of ethics never made a man behave rightly. The most such sciences can do is to help us to catch ourselves up and check ourselves, if we start to reason or to behave wrongly and to criticise ourselves more articulately after we have made mistakes.
William James
Image
What is a logical mind?... It is the antiseptic which destroys the bacilli of unreason whereby true happiness is vivified.
William John Locke
Image
If what is seen and experienced is portrayed in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated through forms whose connections are not accessible to the conscious mind but are recognized intuitively, then it is art.
Albert Einstein
Image
If we trace out what we behold and experience through the language of logic, we are doing science if we show it in forms whose interrelashionships are not accessible to our conscious thought but we are intuitively recognized as meaningful, we are doing art.
Albert Einstein
Image
Logic can take you from point A to point B. Imagination can take you wherever you want
Albert Einstein
Image
I never thought that others would take my theories so much more seriously than I did.
Albert Einstein
Image
The book of female logic is blotted all over with tears, and Justice in their courts is forever in a passion.
William Makepeace Thackeray
Image
Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.
Albert Einstein
Image
Plurality is not to be posited without necessity.
William of Ockham
Image
There are crimes of passion and crimes of logic. The boundary between them is not clearly defined.
Albert Camus
Image
A régime [Nazism] which invented a biological foreign policy was obviously acting against its own best interests. But at least it obeyed its own particular logic.
Albert Camus
Image
It has got to the point in this country where men believe they are men, just because that is their birthright. If that is true, then, by the same logic, an animal held captive in a zoo is still a free wild beast.
William Powell
Image
The best magic always results from ecstasies of logic.
Alban Berg
Image
I believe that in any initiative, you can't have a flavor of the month. When you believe something is profound in a company, you can not be a logical leader. You have to go to the lunatic fringe. There is no way that logic is what you need to change people.
Jack Welch
Image
If we accept the logic of the Declaration, reverence for God is not just a matter of religious faith, it is the foundation of justice and citizenship in our republic.
Alan Keyes
Image
You need a long hard day's work to reveal the logic of the craving for very bad tv and alcohol.
Alain de Botton
Image
Logic will never change emotion or perception.
Edward de Bono
Image
Faith is something that's - it's hard to articulate. It's - there's - it's not based on logic.
Jim Gaffigan
Image
Logic should no longer be considered an elegant and learned accomplishment it should take its place as an indispensable study for every well-informed person.
William Stanley Jevons
Image
Many persons entertain a prejudice against mathematical language, arising out of a confusion between the ideas of a mathematical science and an exact science. ...in reality, there is no such thing as an exact science.
William Stanley Jevons
Image
You can be totally rational with a machine. But if you work with people, sometimes logic often has to take a backseat to understanding.
