“For where is the man that has incontestable evidence of the truth of
all that he holds, or of the falsehood of all he condemns; or can say
that he has examined to the bottom all his own, or other men's opinions?
The necessity of believing without knowledge, nay often upon very
slight grounds, in this fleeting state of action and blindness we are
in, should make us more busy and careful to inform ourselves than
constrain others.”
― John Locke, An Essay Concerning Human Understanding
