novapsyche"Reasoning and logic are to each other as health is to medicine, or--better--as conduct is to morality. Reasoning refers to a gamut of natural thought processes in the everyday world. Logic is how we ought to think if objective truth is our goal--and the everyday world is very little concerned with objective truth."
--Julian Jaynes, Origins of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind, p. 41.
