The supreme function of reason is to show man that some things are beyond reason.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A man always has two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason.
Reason enables us to get around in the world of ideas, but cannot prescribe our thoughts.
Reason is a harmonising, controlling force rather than a creative one.
Reason cannot establish values, and its belief that it can is the stupidiest and most pernicious illusion.
And of all illumination which human reason can give, none is comparable to the discovery of what we are, our nature, our obligations, what happiness we are capable of, and what are the means of attaining it.
From the smallest necessity to the highest religious abstraction, from the wheel to the skyscraper, everything we are and everything we have comes from one attribute of man - the function of his reasoning mind.
There is a reason for everything.
Everything is reason. If you don't have reason, you have nothing.
We can only reason from what is; we can reason on actualities, but not on possibilities.
'Everything happens for a reason' is something that we have to tell ourselves all the time, because it's good to have the idea that something good is around the corner.
