From the same it proceedeth, that men give different names, to one and the same thing, from the difference of their own passions: As they that approve a private opinion, call it Opinion; but they that mislike it, Haeresie: and yet haeresie signifies no more than private opinion; but has onely a greater tincture of choler.
-Thomas Hobbes, /Leviathan/, Part I Chapter XI: “Of the difference of MANNERS”
