Charles Fort Quotes

It Seems To Me That, Very Strikingly Here, Is Borne Out The General Acceptance That Ours Is Only An Intermediate Existence, In Which There Is Nothing Fundamental, Or Nothing Final To Take As A Positive Standard To Judge By. Peasants Believed In Meteorites. Scientists Excluded Meteorites. Peasants Believe In "thunderstones." Scientists Exclude "thunderstones." It Is Useless To Argue That Peasants Are Out In The Fields, And That Scientists Are Shut Up In Laboratories And Lecture Rooms. We Cannot Take For A Real Base That, As To Phenomena With Which They Are More Familiar, Peasants Are More Likely To Be Right Than Are Scientists: A Host Of Biologic And Meteorologic Fallacies Of Peasants Rises Against Us.
