Superstition is the only religion of which base souls are capable of.
Joubert, Joseph

Men become superstitious, not because they have too much imagination, but because they are not aware that they have any.
Santayana, George

3.
Superstition is an unreasoning fear of God.
Cicero, Marcus T.

They that are against superstition oftentimes run into it of the wrong side. If I wear all colors but black, then I am superstitious in not wearing black.
Selden, John

5.
Faith must have adequate evidence, else it is mere superstition.
Alexander Hodge

Blessington, Marguerite Gardiner, Countess of

I have, thanks to my travels, added to my stock all the superstitions of other countries. I know them all now, and in any critical moment of my life, they all rise up in armed legions for or against me.
Bernhardt, Sarah

9.
When superstition is allowed to perform the task of old age in dulling the human temperament, we can say goodbye to all excellence in poetry, in painting, and in music.
Diderot, Denis

Superstition sets the whole world in flames; philosophy quenches them.
Voltaire

Lessing, Doris

Where the flag of truth waves unfurled, there you will find superstition waiting in ambush.
Platen

Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy; the mad daughter of a wise mother.
Voltaire

14.
A superstition is a premature explanation that overstays its time.
George Iles

15.
There is no such thing as an omen. Destiny does not send us heralds. She is too wise or too cruel for that.
Wilde, Oscar

16.
Mankind are an incorrigible race. Give them but bugbears and idols -- it is all that they ask; the distinctions of right and wrong, of truth and falsehood, of good and evil, are worse than indifferent to them.
Hazlitt, William

17.
We do not destroy religion by destroying superstition.
Cicero

18.
Superstitions are habits rather than beliefs.
Dietrich, Marlene

19.
We would be a lot safer if the Government would take its money out of science and put it into astrology and the reading of palms. Only in superstition is there hope. If you want to become a friend of civilization, then become an enemy of the truth and a fanatic for harmless balderdash.
Vonnegut Jr., Kurt

20.
Superstition, bigotry and prejudice, ghosts though they are, cling tenaciously to life; they are shades armed with tooth and claw. They must be grappled with unceasingly, for it is a fateful part of human destiny that it is condemned to wage perpetual war against ghosts. A shade is not easily taken by the throat and destroyed.
Hugo, Victor

21.
I have only one superstition. I touch all the bases when I hit a home run.
Babe Ruth
