“If I am unwilling to step up and look beyond the stunted reach of my own agendas, if I am unwilling embrace the truth even though it may run frustratingly contrary to my most innate desires, if I am unwilling to respect my fellowman even though our disagreements may be irritatingly vast...if I am so lifelessly entrenched in the bane of my own immaturity that I am ignorantly unwilling to do these things and rather choose to play the fool dressed in the garb of wisdom and other such assorted notions, 'common sense' will always be a phrase but never a standard.”

“Chisels and hammers may suffice to work a piece of wood, but for etching we require an etcher's needle. Thus common sense and speculative understanding are both useful, but each in its own way: the former in judgments which apply immediately to experience; the latter when we judge universally from mere concepts, as in metaphysics, where sound common sense, so called in spite of the inappropriateness of the word, has no right to judge at all.”
