Text Quotes
We all profess that we are bound for heaven, immortality, and glory: but is it any evidence that we really design it if all our thoughts are consumed about the trifles of this world, which we must leave behind us, and have only occasional thoughts of things above?  (Evidence Quotes) He that compares what he has done with what he has left undone, will feel the effect which must always follow the comparison of imagination with reality; he will look with contempt on his own unimportance, and wonder to what purpose he came into the world; he will repine that he shall leave behind him no evidence of his having been, that he has added nothing to the system of life, but has glided from youth to age among the crowd, without any effort for distinction  (Evidence Quotes) That the great majority of those who leave school should have some idea of the kind of evidence required to substantiate given types of belief does not seem unreasonable. Nor is it absurd to expect that they should go forth with a lively interest in the ways in which knowledge is improved and a marked distaste for all conclusions reached in disharmony with the methods of scientific inquiry  (Evidence Quotes) Science shares with religion the claim that it answers deep questions about origins, the nature of life, and the cosmos. But there the resemblance ends. Scientific beliefs are supported by evidence, and they get results. Myths and faiths are not and do not  (Evidence Quotes) The absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages between major transitions in organic design, indeed our inability, even in our imagination, to construct functional intermediates in many cases, has been a persistent and nagging problem for gradualist accounts of evolution  (Evidence Quotes) There has never been any evidence that the death penalty reduces capital crimes or that crimes increased when executions stopped. Tragic mistakes are prevalent... It is clear that there are overwhelming ethical, financial, and religious reasons to abolish the death penalty  (Evidence Quotes) I would say the biggest handicap we have right now is some nutcases in our country that don’t believe in global warming. I think they are going to change their position because of pressure from individuals, because the evidence of the ravages of global warming is already there  (Evidence Quotes) There’s another way to phrase that and that is that the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. It is basically saying the same thing in a different way. Simply because you do not have evidence that something does exist does not mean that you have evidence that it doesn’t exist  (Evidence Quotes) The demand for certainty is one which is natural to man, but is nevertheless an intellectual vice. So long as men are not trained to withhold judgment in the absence of evidence, they will be led astray by cocksure prophets, and it is likely that their leaders will be either ignorant fanatics or dishonest charlatans. To endure uncertainty is difficult, but so are most of the other virtues  (Evidence Quotes) The evidence that you truly repented long ago when you said you did is because you’re still repenting now and even to a greater degree. The evidence that you believed a long time ago is that you’re still believing now and ever more believing in greater and greater degrees  (Evidence Quotes) Trust is not about being comfortable. It is about being willing to move beyond your comfort zone when there is absolutely no evidence you will be supported. Think of it this way. Trust is based on your ability to stand your ground and rely on your own abilities, knowing that no matter what happens, you will be better off than you were in the beginning  (Evidence Quotes) Our whole educational system, from the elementary schools to the universities, is increasingly turning out people who have never heard enough conflicting arguments to develop the skills and discipline required to produce a coherent analysis, based on logic and evidence. The implications of having so many people so incapable of confronting opposing arguments with anything besides ad hominem responses reach far  (Evidence Quotes) Sometimes small incidents, rather than glorious exploits, give us the best evidence of character. So, as portrait painters are more exact in doing the face, where the character is revealed, than the rest of the body, I must be allowed to give my more particular attention to the marks of the souls of men  (Evidence Quotes) I found earthquakes, even when I was in them, deeply satisfying, abruptly revealed evidence of the scheme in action. That the schemes could destroy the works of man might be a personal regret but remained, in the larger picture I had come to recognize, a matter of abiding indifference. No eye was on the sparrow. No eye was watching me  (Evidence Quotes) So let’s not get frightened when the children read fantasy. It’s the compost for a healthy mind. It stimulate s the inquisitive nodes, and there is some evidence that a rich internal fantasy life is as good and necessary for a child as healthy soil is for a plant, for much the same reasons  (Evidence Quotes) I take what I see work. I’m a strict believer in the scientific principle of believing nothing, only taking the best evidence available at the present time, interpreting it as best you can, and leaving your mind open to the fact that new evidence will appear tomorrow  (Evidence Quotes) There was never sufficient evidence presented at my trial to support a finding of intent to kill  (Evidence Quotes) It is almost impossible to exaggerate the proneness of the human mind to take miracles as evidence, and to seek for miracles as evidence  (Evidence Quotes) The same expertise we learned at the autopsy table can be applied to living people who’ve been shot, battered, or raped. The search for trace evidence is the same  (Evidence Quotes) Faith, n. Belief without evidence in what is told by one who speaks without knowledge, of things without parallel  (Evidence Quotes) Evidence can vary depending on the circumstances, the weather, and how long it has been hanging around  (Evidence Quotes) In reality, those rare few cases with good forensic evidence are the ones that make it to court  (Evidence Quotes) Here before us was sufficient evidence to show that it really was an entrance to a tomb, and by the seals, to all outward appearances that it was intact  (Evidence Quotes) In like manner, if I let myself believe anything on insufficient evidence, there may be no great harm done by the mere belief; it may be true after all, or I may never have occasion to exhibit it in outward acts  (Evidence Quotes) To sum up: it is wrong always, everywhere, and for anyone, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence  (Evidence Quotes) We used to speak familiarly of an agent, now do more, who was accustomed to manufacture evidence, and to invent facts in his cases, or at least to alter the aspects of facts to such an extent that they might fairly be viewed as new  (Evidence Quotes) Are you leaving evidence that you appreciate today or are you only leaving evidence that you are scared of tomorrow?  (Evidence Quotes) When we awaken, we cannot account for the time spent. We simply don’t remember. About the only evidence we have of experiences while we were asleep is when we happen to remember a dream  (Evidence Quotes) The evidence that things are changing fast can be seen in the dramatic increase in the influence of blogging. We should be collecting emails as we used to collect telephone numbers and using them to better communicate our message to key voters  (Evidence Quotes) There is no direct evidence that nuclear weapons prevented a world war. Conversely, it is known that they nearly caused one  (Evidence Quotes)
