“Men try to do battle with error, but when the fight is over they have the uncomfortable feeling that the human soul is more at home with illusion than with truth and that they ought to admit it.”
Paul Hazard, paraphrasing Pierre Bayle in "The Crisis of the European Mind 1680-1715"

“In that old Potter's Shop I stood alone
with the clay Population round in Rows.

And strange to tell among the Earthen Lot
Some could articulate, while others not:
And suddenly one more impatient cried-
"Who is the Potter, pray, and who the Pot?”
Omar Khayyám, translated by Edward FitzGerald

Plato
“The "right" is nothing more than what benefits the powerful.”
Plato

Euripides
