{Common sense} is a spontaneous set of beliefs which together express a conception of the world which takes the social order as 'the way things are.' It is apparently the 'spontaneous feelings' that people have, the traditional popular conception of the world – what is unimaginatively called "instinct" although it too is in fact a primitive and elementary historical acquisition.
( Antonio Gramsci )
