1 " The acquisition of knowledge has become too intimidating a prospect for them, so they shun it in favour of faith. "
― Mark Hodder , The Curious Case of the Clockwork Man (Burton & Swinburne, #2)
2 " Beware of the brains you invade. "
3 " Faith requires nothing but blind adherence, whereas knowledge demands the continual apprehension of an ever-expanding body of information. With faith, one can at least claim knowledge without having to do the hard work of acquiring it. "
4 " But maybe efficiency isn’t all it’s held up to be. Maybe it’s the inefficiencies and mistakes that give us the best impetus to change and grow and improve. "
