Prejudice

It is not the simple statement of facts that ushers in freedom; it is the constant repetition of them that has this liberating effect. Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment, but of boredom.
- Crisp, Quentin
Prejudice Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Prejudice

1.
He who has a task to perform must know how to take sides, or he is quite unworthy of it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

2.
I wander if there really is a brave man with a really good imagination? If hypocrisy was destructive to the environment the world would have ended a long, long time ago.

3.
Sometimes we feel the loss of a prejudice as a loss of vigor.
Hoffer, Eric

4.
For those who do not think, it is best at least to rearrange their prejudices once in a while.
Burbank, Luther

5.
The one and only formative power given to man Is thought. By his thinking he not only makes character, but body and affairs, for as he thinketh within himself, so is he. Prejudice is a mist, which in our journey through the world often dims the brightest and obscures the best of all the good and glorious objects that meet us on our way.
Shaftesbury, Lord

6.
The most learned are often the most narrow minded.
Hazlitt, William

7.
We still live in a world in which a significant fraction of people, including women, believe that a woman belongs and wants to belong exclusively in the home.
Sussman, Rosalyn

8.
All looks yellow to a jaundiced eye.
Pope, Alexander

9.
Destroy it. There may be a redistribution of the land, but the natural inequality of men soon re-creates an inequality of possessions and privileges, and raises to power a new minority with essentially the same instincts as the old.
Durant, William J.

10.
It is never too late to give up our prejudices.
Henry David Thoreau

11.
America owes most of its social prejudices to the exaggerated religious opinions of the different sects which were so instrumental in establishing the colonies.
Cooper, James F.

12.
Prejudice is a great timesaver. It enables you to form opinions without bothering to get facts.

13.
Our prejudices are our robbers, they rob us valuable things in life.

14.
Without the aid of prejudice and custom I should not be able to find my way across the room.
William Hazlitt

15.
Never try to reason the prejudice out of a man. It was not reasoned into him, and cannot be reasoned out.
Sydney Smith

16.
If we were to wake up some morning and find that everyone was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other cause for prejudice by noon.
George Aiken

17.
Prejudice not being funded on reason cannot be removed by argument.
Johnson, Samuel

18.
I am free of all prejudice. I hate everyone equally.
W. C. Fields

19.
Man associates ideas not according to logic or verifiable exactitude, but according to his pleasure and interests. It is for this reason that most truths are nothing but prejudices.
Gourmont, Remy De

20.
Nobody outside of a baby carriage or a judge's chamber believes in an unprejudiced point of view.
Lillian Hellman

21.
The mind of a bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you pour on it, the more it will contract.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

22.
If you want to make beautiful music, you must play the black and the white notes together.
Nixon, Richard M.

23.
Everyone is a prisoner of his own experiences. No one can eliminate prejudices -- just recognize them.
Murrow, Edward R.

24.
Prejudice is the sole author of infamies: how many acts are so qualified by an opinion forged out of naught but prejudice!
Sade, Marquis De

25.
Prejudice is being down on something you're not up on.

26.
When the judgement's weak, The prejudice is strong.
Kane O'Hara

27.
One may no more live in the world without picking up the moral prejudices of the world than one will be able to go to hell without perspiring.
Mencken, H. L.

28.
There is no prejudice that the work of art does not finally overcome.
Gide, Andre

29.
It is just as impossible to help reform by conciliating prejudice as it is by buying votes. Prejudice is the enemy. Whoever is not for you is against you.
Chapman, John Jay

30.
No wise man can have a contempt for the prejudices of others; and he should even stand in a certain awe of his own, as if they were aged parents and monitors. They may in the end prove wiser than he.
Hazlitt, William

31.
Reasoning against prejudice is like fighting against a shadow; it exhausts the reasoner, without visibly affecting the prejudice.
Mildmay

32.
Opinions founded on prejudice are always sustained with the greatest of violence.
Francis Jeffrey

33.
Orthodoxy is the diehard of the world of thought. It learns not, neither can it forget.
Huxley, Aldous

34.
There are, in every age, new errors to be rectified and new prejudices to be opposed.
Samuel Johnson

35.
Prejudice is opinion without judgement.
Voltaire

36.
Two things reduce prejudice: education and laughter.
Peter, Laurence J.

37.
Whoever seeks to set one race against another seeks to enslave all races.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

38.
There is no prejudice so strong as that which arises from a fancied exemption from all prejudice.
Hazlitt, William

39.
I'm interested in the fact that the less secure a man is, the more likely he is to have extreme prejudice.
Eastwood, Clint

40.
A prejudice is a vagrant opinion without visible means of support.
Bierce, Ambrose

41.
It is not the simple statement of facts that ushers in freedom; it is the constant repetition of them that has this liberating effect. Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment, but of boredom.
Crisp, Quentin

42.
Of my two handicaps, being female put many more obstacles in my path than being black.
Chisholm, Shirley Anita

43.
The discovery of truth is prevented more effectively, not by the false appearance things present and which mislead into error, not directly by weakness of the reasoning powers, but by preconceived opinion, by prejudice.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

44.
Prejudices are so to speak the mechanical instincts of men: through their prejudices they do without any effort many things they would find too difficult to think through to the point of resolving to do them.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

45.
One can only give an unbiased opinion about things that do not interest one, which is no doubt the reason an unbiased opinion is always valueless. The man who sees both sides of a question is a man who sees absolutely nothing.
Wilde, Oscar

46.
Opinions founded on prejudice are always sustained with the greatest violence.
Proverb, Hebrew

47.
Prejudices are what fools use for reason.
Voltaire

48.
Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education; they grow there, firm as weeds among stones.
Bronte, Charlotte

49.
It's amazing what ordinary people can do if they set out without preconceived notions.
Kettering, Charles F.

50.
A great many people think they are thinking when they are really rearranging their prejudices.
William James
