Logical Quotes
-
Let us again pretend that life is a solid substance, shaped like a globe, which we turn about in our fingers. Let us pretend that we can make out a plain and logical story, so that when one matter is despatched—love for instance—we go on, in an orderly manner, to the next.
Virginia Woolf
-
What is a logical mind?... It is the antiseptic which destroys the bacilli of unreason whereby true happiness is vivified.
William John Locke
-
Look at any financial institution, at any bank. They're all photocopies of each other. There's no diversity of institutions and even less diversity of currency. Therefore, just as you say its very logical that an ecosystem like this will collapse, it's very predictable a monetary system like this will collapse, too. And it hasn't finished collapsing, by the way.
Bernard Lietaer
-
I guess I am famous in a way. I would rather consider it recognizable - I think that is more logical. I don't feel famous.
Henry Rollins

Only by spiritual practice can we break through our karma and the effects of the causes we have made. Only then can we escape from them. It matters not whether you have acquired any merit. Merit is merit. Karma is karma. Nonetheless, if one practices the Quan Yin Method, one can be liberated regardless of having any merit or not. It is so logical, so scientific.
Ching Hai
-
Strategically, it is that same paradoxical logic that transforms victories into defeats if they merely persist long enough to pass their culminating point, whether by overextension or by bringing others into the fray, or both. And there is much more of the same, at every level of struggle, from the clash of weapons to the clash of empires, and in peace as well as in war. Always and everywhere it is the paradoxical logic of strategy that determines outcomes, whether the protagonists know of its existence or not.
Edward Luttwak
-
...some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.
Michael Caine
-
It's logical for us to sing, but not necessarily operatic pieces.
Jose Carreras
-
The habit of committing our thoughts to writing is a powerful means of expanding the mind, and producing a logical and systematic arrangement of our views and opinions. It is this which gives the writer a vast superiority, as to the accuracy and extent of his conceptions, over the mere talker. No one can ever hope to know the principles of any art or science thoroughly who does not write as well as read upon the subject.
William Blaikie
-
We cannot ultimately specify the grounds (either metaphysical or logical or empirical) upon which we hold that our knowledge is true. Being committed to such grounds, dwelling in them, we are projecting ourselves to what we believe to be true from or through these grounds. We cannot therefore see what they are. We cannot look at them because we are looking with them.
Michael Polanyi
-
Perhaps the logical conclusion of everyone looking the same is everyone thinking the same.
Scott Westerfeld
-
The adult public's taste is not necessarily ready to accept the logical solutions to their requirements if the solution implies too vast a departure from what they have been conditioned into accepting as the norm.
Raymond Loewy
