Twenty-One Logic Quotes You Need

Logic. Sigh. It will be correct if you say that the world has not seen a more controversial word that lays absolute claim on the rationale, on wisdom, and on understanding. People who lay claim to logic, who claim they own it, we browse through its shelves of high-sounding words, people who stand with shoulder raised high in their coveted wisdom are not the problem with logic. Logic is its own problem, holding the world en masse, on a lease and leading them to a land of Socrates, classic drama, and medieval sadist-poets. This introduction doesn’t make sense, that is logical. Here are logic quotes to affirm this.

“Nobody mentions it, but there are two types of insanity. One is the unstable mind, that’s the one they make films about, the romantic insanity, a person out of control and capable of almost anything. But the other is the madness of the stable mind, where behavior is illogical and damaging but every day it is exactly the same.” ― Petra Jacob

“This naked moment may well be apprehended with greater acuity in retrospect, but how can we know if what we view in hindsight will ever have truly been? The uncertainty of it is frightening—but maybe, at the same time, we need not look upon it as a crisis of the human condition. Assimilating this irresoluteness may indeed be our greatest capacity. To live in this perpetual bewilderment and without respite is to be honest, even genuine, with oneself. Perhaps we must embrace the disinterested nature of our anxiety even if we know that it is contrastingly woven from competing threads of self-interest. It is sad that we cannot trust what our senses tell us, trust the information we are given. Or maybe it is beautiful if you see an aesthetic to the indecipherable, to the very thought that even the tiniest shard of logic may pierce at us whilst yet eluding us.”
― Ashim Shanker
