Benjamin Jowett
Logic is neither a science nor an art, but a dodge.

Charles Caleb Colton, Lacon

Metaphysics may be, after all, only the art of being sure of something that is not so, and logic only the art of going wrong with confidence.

Niels Bohr

Oliver Wendell Holmes, The One-Hoss Shay
Logic is logic. That's all I say.

Rabindranath Tagore
A mind all logic is like a knife all blade.
