4 Quotes by Hypatia Hypatia

• All formal dogmatic religions are fallacious and must never be accepted by self-respecting persons as final.
• Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all.
• In fact men will fight for a superstition quite as quickly as for a living truth - often more so, since a superstition is so intangible you cannot get at it to refute it, but truth is a point of view, and so is changeable.
• Fables should be taught as fables, myths as myths, and miracles as poetic fantasies. To teach superstitions as truths is a most terrible thing. The child mind accepts and believes them, and only through great pain and perhaps tragedy can he be in after years relieved of them.
