QotD

"Logic is the opiate of those who are afraid of their feelings."

*dons asbestos suit*

EDIT: We have competition for QotD: "Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. Give him ramen noodles, and you don’t have to teach him anything." (from Momofuku Ando's obituary)

Interesting quote.

And for every quote, there is an equal and opposite quote:
Logic is the lawyer of the heart

(I heard that in school, but I have no idea who the teacher was quoting)

That's quite true. People will construct wonderful arguments to prove things they already believe.
