هل قال Thomas Paine حقًا «A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.»؟
وُجد حرفيًا. نعم. النص موجود في أعمال منسوبة إلى Thomas Paine. المصدر والموضع أدناه.
Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not YET sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favour; a long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficial appearance of being RIGHT, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.
