Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.

People who honestly mean to be true really contradict themselves much more rarely than those who try to be "consistent."

Einstein is an analytical mathematician seeking to give a physical interpretation to the conclusions of his mathematical process. In this he is hampered by a load of contradictory and absurd assumptions of the school that he follows, which throws him into all manner of difficulty. Einstein has such a faculty for embracing both sides of a contradiction that one would have to be of the same frame of mind to follow his thought, it is so peculiarly his own. The whole Relativity theory is as easy to follow as the path of a bat in the air at night.

Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.

Even though I make those movies, I find myself wishing that more of those magic moments could happen in real life.

Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes).

The well-bred contradict other people. The wise contradict themselves.
