For this reason, most people think they can get along perfectly well without metaphor.

Our ordinary conceptual system, in terms of which we both think and act, is fundamentally metaphorical in nature (Reason Quotes)
One reason that the task of inventing manners is so difficult is that etiquette is folk custom, and people have emotional ties to the forms of their youth.

The big lie and monotonously repeated nonsense have more emotional appeal in a cold war than logic and reason (Reason Quotes)
The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty (Reason Quotes)

The improvement of forest trees is the work of centuries. So much more the reason for beginning now (Reason Quotes)

Why did I lose? No reason, though you might like to know that I got tired, my ears started popping, the rubber came off my shoes, I got cramp, and I lost one of my contact lenses. Other than that I was in great shape (Reason Quotes)
I am not one of the people who believe that the main reason why a chap becomes a bookmaker is because he is too scared to steal and too heavy to become a jockey (Reason Quotes)
Our behaviour as an athlete is often determined by our previous experiences and how we dealt with those experiences. It is these experiences from past performances that can often shape what will happen in the future. It is for this reason that you learn and move on to be more mentally stronger as both an athlete and as a human! (Reason Quotes)
One fact stands out in bold relief in the history of man’s attempts for betterment. That is that when compulsion is used, only resentment is aroused, and the end is not gained. Only through moral suasion and appeal to man’s reason can a movement succeed (Reason Quotes)
Her heart is older than her head; yea, her emotion is the mother of her reason (Reason Quotes)

It is the human wish to be told lies that keep us as primitive morally and socially as we are. I am persuaded that a lie grounded in human desire is too powerful for mere reason to kill (Reason Quotes)
A time will come when the science of destruction shall bend before the arts of peace; when the genius which multiplies our powers, which creates new products, which diffuses comfort and happiness among the great mass of the people, shall occupy in the general estimation of mankind that rank which reason and common sense now assign to it (Reason Quotes)
There’s a very simple reason for focusing on the nuclear issue. Many, many issues are of supreme importance in one way or another, but if we blow ourselves up with nuclear weapons, no other issue is really going to matter. Quite possibly there would be no other human beings left to be concerned about anything else (Reason Quotes)
I do believe in forgiving and forgetting. There was a reason we were together. I just want to hold on to the good times (Reason Quotes)
