“Intuition does not denote something contrary to reason, but something outside of the province of reason.”

“A man has two reasons for doing something; a good reason and the real reason.”

“Books allowed her vicarious tastes of infinite variety, but they didn't supplant the need to venture out into the big and the messy. In fact, just the opposite. Books convinced her that something more existed---something intuitive, beyond reason---and they whetted her appetite to find it.”

“A person usually has two reasons for doing something, a good reason and the real reason.”

“If you have more than one reason to do something (choose a doctor or veterinarian, hire a gardener or an employee, marry a person, go on a trip), just don’t do it. It does not mean that one reason is better than two, just that by invoking more than one reason you are trying to convince yourself to do something. Obvious decisions (robust to error) require no more than a single reason.”

“Christianity is reasonable in virtue of the impossibility of the contrary.”
