Bertrand Russell:
What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence.
一人固信不合的事理,正那是他不自知的常求。
如果他真相看,但些背他的求,他加以密;除非些明不可,他一定抗到底。
反之,如果他一事,他有足理由去照章求;即使明微不足道,他也一定接受。
Buddha:
Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
什好相信,如果只是因者是所有智慧的人,或是一普遍流的解。
什好相信,如果只是因那是出自古,或是被具有神的理由。
什好相信,如果只是因有其他名人也相信。
只相信你自的以及判的真。
David Hume:
Truth springs from argument amongst friends.
真理自朋友的。

Emily Dickinson:
Truth is such a rare thing, it is delighted to tell it.

The truth which has made us free will in the end make us glad also.

All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.

New opinions often appear first as jokes and fancies, then as blasphemies and treason, then as questions open to discussion, and finally as established truths.

Falsehood is easy, truth so difficult.
