Superstition(Related Subjects: Religion)

Faith must have adequate evidence, else it is mere superstition. Alexander Hodge I have only one superstition. I touch all the bases when I hit a home run. Babe Ruth (1895 - 1948) Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom. Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970), Unpopular Essays (1950), "Outline of Intellectual Rubbish" We do not destroy religion by destroying superstition. Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC) A superstition is a premature explanation that overstays its time. George Iles Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.... Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Helen Keller (1880 - 1968), The Open Door (1957) Count Hermann Keyserling once said truly that the greatest American superstition was belief in facts. John Gunther (1901 - 1970)
