G.K. Chesterton Quotes
For The Modern World Will Accept No Dogmas Upon Any Authority; But It Will Accept Any Dogmas On No Authority. Say That A Thing Is So, According To The Pope Or The Bible, And It Will Be Dismissed As A Superstition Without Examination. But Preface Your Remark Merely With "they Say" Or "don't You Know That?" Or Try (and Fail) To Rememver The Name Of Some Professor Mentioned In Some Newspaper; And The Keen Rationalism Of The Modern Mind Will Accept Every Word You Say.
