One of the quotes that always sticks with me is:

"Most of our so-called reasoning consists of finding arguments to go on believing as we already do." -- James Harvey Robinson.

I've long since come to the conclusion that humans choose their positions based on gut reactions and almost all of their arguments for holding that position come after the fact.
