Best Quotes about Fanatics and fanaticism

1.
I carry from my mother's womb a fanatic's heart.
Yeats, William Butler

2.
Throughout human history, the apostles of purity, those who have claimed to possess a total explanation, have wrought havoc among mere mixed-up human beings.
Rushdie, Salman

3.
In the history of mankind, fanaticism has caused more harm than vice.
Kronenberger, Louis

4.
In the fevered state of our country, no good can ever result from any attempt to set one of these fiery zealots to rights, either in fact or principle. They are determined as to the facts they will believe, and the opinions on which they will act. Get by them, therefore, as you would by an angry bull; it is not for a man of sense to dispute the road with such an animal.
Jefferson, Thomas

5.
Fervor is the weapon of choice of the impotent.
Fanon, Frantz

6.
Wisdom becomes nonsense in the mouth of a fanatic.
Schuwdrmer, Otto

Jameson, Storm

8.
Fanaticism soberly defined, is the false fire of an over heated mind.
Cowper, William

The most dangerous madmen are those created by religion, and people whose aim is to disrupt society always know how to make good use of them on occasion.
Diderot, Denis

10.
The fanatic is incorruptible: if he kills for an idea, he can just as well get himself killed for one; in either case, tyrant or martyr, he is a monster.
Cioran, E. M.

11.
A fanatic is a man who consciously over compensates a secret doubt.
Huxley, Aldous

12.
Just as every conviction begins as a whim so does every emancipator serve his apprenticeship as a crank. A fanatic is a great leader who is just entering the room.
Broun, Heywood

13.
Fanatics are picturesque, mankind would rather see gestures than listen to reasons.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

14.
Defined in psychological terms, a fanatic is a man who consciously over-compensates a secret doubt.
Huxley, Aldous

15.
If you see one cold and vehement at the same time, set him down for a fanatic.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

16.
There is no place in a fanatic's head where reason can enter.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

17.
A fanatic is a man that does what he thinks the Lord would do if He knew the facts of the case.
Dunne, Finley Peter
