common sense

«Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.»
«Common sense is instinct, and enough of it is genius.»
Author: Josh Billings (Humorist) | About: Common sense | Keywords: common sense, instinct
«Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom.»
«By alienation is meant a mode of experience in which the person experiences himself as an alien. He has become, one might say, estranged from himself. He does not experience himself as the center of his world, as the creator of his own acts, but his acts and their consequences have become his masters, whom he obeys, or whom he may even worship. The alienated person is out of touch with himself as he is out of touch with any other person. He, like the others, is experienced as things are experienced; with the senses and with common sense, but at the same time without being related to oneself and to the world outside positively.»
«Common sense is instinct. Enough of it is genius.»
«A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning»
«Common sense is genius dressed in its working clothes.»
«Common sense is as rare as genius, - is the basis of genius»
«Blasphemy is an epithet bestowed by superstition upon common sense»
«Common sense is in spite of, not as the result of education.»
