Opinion
"The opinion of 10,000 men is of no value if none of them know anything about the subject."– Marcus Aurelius?
"In Science the authority embodied in the opinion of thousands is not worth a spark of reason in one man." - Galileo Galilei?
"The difference between a truth based on an opinion and on wisdom is this. Wisdom backs itself up by science; opinion gives no proof but someone's opinion. Here is the difference. Man who is under the wisdom of opinion has no idea on what his opinions are based. All controversy springs from this error." Quimby
