Prejudice is not bigotry or superstition, although prejudice sometimes may degenerate into these.
Prejudice is pre-judgment, the answer with which intuition and ancestral consensus of opinion supply a man when he lacks either time or knowledge to arrive at a decision predicated upon pure reason.

  Edmund Burke
