WARBURTON, William Quotes
(1698-1779), English bishop
Orthodoxy is my doxy; heterodoxy is another man's doxy.
Reason is the test of ridicule—not ridicule the test of truth.
Of all exercises there are none of so much importance, or so immediately our concern, as those which let us into the knowledge of our own nature. Others may exercise the understanding or amuse the imagination; but these only can improve the heart and form the human mind to wisdom.
