On what logic can do to faith:
"...the voluntary, continuous, and, so to say, enthusiastic striving for a deliberate dichotomy of the human consciousness shatters the spirit's forces at the root. Intelligence is then transformed into cleverness, emotion into blind passion, beauty into illusion, truth into opinion, learning into a syllogism, reality into a springboard for the imagination, virtue into smugness; while theatricality becomes life's inseparable companion, serving as an external cover for falsehood even as idle fancy provides its internal mask." --Ivan Kireevsky
