"Truth will have no gods before it.- The belief in truth begins with the doubt of all truths in which one has previously believed."

Previous Quote

When even the brightest mind in our world has been trained up from childhood in a superstition of any kind, it will never be possible for that mind, in its maturity, to examine sincerely, dispassionately, and conscientiously any evidence or any circumstance which shall seem to cast a doubt upon the validity of that superstition. I doubt if I could do it myself.

— Mark Twain
