Orthodoxy is my doxy - heterodoxy is another man's doxy.
William Warburton
Image
Orthodoxy cannot afford to put out the fires of hell.
Robert Green Ingersoll
Image
Orthodoxy is the diehard of the world of thought. It learns not, neither can it forget.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Orthodoxy is unconsciousness.
George Orwell
Image
Orthodoxy is the ability to say two and two make five when faith requires it.
George Orwell
Image
orthodoxy is a fixed habit of mind. The average man and woman hug their orthodoxies and spit their venom on those that outrage them.
Gertrude Atherton
Image
Orthodoxy is the grave of intelligence, no matter what orthodoxy it may be.
Bertrand Russell
Image
Orthodoxy is a corpse that doesn't know it's dead.
Elbert Hubbard
Image
It seems to me that, as it is usually presented, the current orthodoxy about the cosmic order is the product of governing assumptions that are unsupported, and that it flies in the face of common sense.
Thomas Nagel
Image
With the collision of the Shoemaker comet into Jupiter, the era of uniformitarian orthodoxy must come to an end. Minds that have been closed for nearly half a millennium can now be opened to see what really has happened to our planet in the past -- and that past is not as distant as we might suppose.
Vine Deloria Jr.
Image
Strict orthodoxy can cost too much if it has to be bought at the price of love. All the orthodoxy in the world will never take the place of love.
William Barclay
Image
I think that the influence towards suppression of minority views - towards orthodoxy in thinking about public issues - has been more subconscious than unconscious, stemming to a very great extent from the tendency of Americans to conform...not to deviate or depart from an orthodox point of view.
William O. Douglas
Image
Ray Jennings was to orthodoxy what King Herod was to child-minding.
Michael Atherton
Image
The word 'conservative' is used by the BBC as a portmanteau word of abuse for anyone whose views differ from the insufferable, smug, sanctimonious, naive, guilt-ridden, wet, pink orthodoxy of that sunset home of the third-rate minds of that third-rate decade, the nineteen-sixties.
Norman Tebbit
Image
In an age that has thrown off all tradition, the only rebellion possible is orthodoxy.
Peter Kreeft
Image
Frantic orthodoxy is never rooted in faith but in doubt. It is when we are unsure that we are doubly sure.
Reinhold Niebuhr
Image
Where orthodoxy is optional, orthodoxy will sooner or later be proscribed.
Richard John Neuhaus
Image
I think punk should really be defined as paving your own way creatively and by defying any sort of orthodoxy or commercial pressure.
Shepard Fairey
Image
I do not say think as I think, but think in my way. Fear no shadows, least of all in that great spectre of personal unhappiness which binds half the world to orthodoxy.
Thomas Huxley
Image
Untrained minds have always been a nuisance to the military police of orthodoxy. God-intoxicated mystics and untidy saints with only a white blaze of divine love where their minds should have been, are perpetually creating almost as much disorder within the law as outside it.
Katherine Anne Porter
Image
There is nothing more ugly than an orthodoxy without understanding or compassion.
Francis Schaeffer
Image
Nowadays, as before, the public declaration and confession of Orthodoxy is usually encountered among dull-witted, cruel and immoral people who tend to consider themselves very important. Whereas intelligence, honesty, straightforwardness, good-naturedness and morality are qualities usually found among people who claim to be non-believers.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
When a heretic wishes to avoid martyrdom he speaks of Orthodoxy, True and False and demonstrates that the True is his heresy.
George Bernard Shaw
Image
You may honestly feel grateful that homeopathy survived the attempts of the allopaths (orthodoxy) to destroy it.
Mark Twain
