"It has generally been assumed that of two opposing systems of philosophy, e.g., realism and idealism, one only can be true and one must be false; and so philosophers have been hopelessly divided on the question, which is the true one."

"Dangers lurk in all systems. Systems incorporate the unexamined beliefs of their creators. Adopt a system, accept its beliefs, and you help strengthen the resistance to change."

"In thus pointing out certain respects in which philosophy resembles literature more than science, I do not mean, of course, to imply that it would be well for philosophy if it ceased to aim at scientific rigor."
Science
"To be sure, the vast majority of people who are untrained can accept the results of science only on authority."
Science
"If religion cannot restrain evil, it cannot claim effective power for good."
Power
"Let philosophy resolutely aim to be as scientific as possible, but let her not forget her strong kinship with literature."
Philosophy
"A creative element is surely present in all great systems, and it does not seem possible that all sympathy or fundamental attitudes of will can be entirely eliminated from any human philosophy."
Sympathy
"Conservatism clings to what has been established, fearing that, once we begin to question the beliefs that we have inherited, all the values of life will be destroyed."
Life

Concern
"The picture which the philosopher draws of the world is surely not one in which every stroke is necessitated by pure logic."
Philosophy
"Literature and philosophy both allow past idols to be resurrected with a frequency which would be truly distressing to a sober scientist."
Literature
"Again, both literature and philosophy work by appealing to certain reigning idols."
