Prejudices are so to speak the mechanical instincts of men: through their prejudices they do without any effort many things they would find too difficult to think through to the point of resolving to do them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most men, when they think they are thinking, are merely rearranging their prejudices.
Beware prejudices. They are like rats, and men's minds are like traps; prejudices get in easily, but it is doubtful if they ever get out.
Men need knowledge in order to overpower their passions and master their prejudices.
Prejudices in disfavor of a person fix deeper, and are much more difficult to be removed, than prejudices in favor.
Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible.
There are a lot of people who like to think they don't have prejudices and that they're open people, and yet, we all have that in ourselves, oftentimes against people of our own race or our own gender or whatever.
Prejudice is like a hair across your cheek. You can't see it, you can't find it with your fingers, but you keep brushing at it because the feel of it is irritating.
Prejudices are what fools use for reason.
Prejudice of any kind implies that you are identified with the thinking mind. It means you don't see the other human being anymore, but only your own concept of that human being. To reduce the aliveness of another human being to a concept is already a form of violence.
Prejudices are the chains forged by ignorance to keep men apart.
