Skeptical Quotes

Although individuals may be highly intelligent, they are sometimes dogged by skepticism and doubts. They are clever, but they tend to be hesitant and skeptical and are never really able to settle down. These people are the least receptive Picture Quote #1

What is called for is an exquisite balance between two conflicting needs: the most skeptical scrutiny of all hypotheses that are served up to us and at the same time a great openness to new ideas.

On the other hand, if you are open to the point of gullibility and have not an ounce of skeptical sense in you, then you cannot distinguish useful ideas from the worthless ones Picture Quote #1

If you want to stay in for the long haul, and lead a life that is free from illusions either propagated by you or embraced by you, then I suggest you learn to recognize and avoid the symptoms of the zealot and the person who knows he is right.

Prejudice is of ready application in the emergency; it previously engages the mind in a steady course of wisdom and virtue, and does not leave the man hesitating in the moment of decision, skeptical, puzzled and unresolved. Prejudice renders a man’s virtue his habit; and not a series of unconnected acts. Through past prejudice, his duty becomes part of his nature Picture Quote #1

Ask courageous questions. Do not be satisfied with superficial answers. Be open to wonder and at the same time subject all claims to knowledge, without exception, to intense skeptical scrutiny. Be aware of human fallibility. Cherish your species and your planet Picture Quote #1

In the midst of my skeptical, cynical, often pessimistic nature exists a slender capacity to believe, if only temporarily, in a guiding, unseen power, and whenever this happens, I go with it. That’s what inspiration is. You don’t get it from the gods. You make it Picture Quote #1

Imagine if it happened to you: all of a sudden you find this thing on your wrist and people are telling you it has powers. I would be a little skeptical myself Picture Quote #1

One special advantage of the skeptical attitude of mind is that a man is never vexed to find that after all he has been in the wrong Picture Quote #1

A good skeptical mind doesn’t waste itself on drugs or ideology, and prefers to break the rules in our minds, in the form of humor, rather than in real life Picture Quote #1

Numbers on a TV screen won’t prevent millions of Americans from noticing that they’re unemployed Picture Quote #1
