Famous quotes with According to reason

• [T]he ancient philosophers... all of them assert that the elements, and those things which are called by them principles, are contraries, though they establish them without reason, as if they were compelled to assert this by truth itself. They differ, however... that some of them assume prior, and others posterior principles; and some of them things more known according to reason, but others such as are more known according to sense: for some establish the hot and the cold, others the moist and the dry, others the odd and the even, and others strife and friendship, as the causes of generation. ...in a certain respect they assert the same things, and speak differently from each other. They assert different things... but the same things, so far as they speak analogously. For they assume principles from the same co-ordination; since, of contraries, some contain, and others are contained.

  Aristotle
• [U]niversal is known according to reason, but that which is particular, according to sense...

  Aristotle
• I am Bourbon as a matter of honour, royalist according to reason and conviction, and republican by taste and character.

  François-René de Chateaubriand
