Opinion
An opinion is a person's ideas and thoughts towards something. It is an
assessment, judgment or evaluation of something. An opinion is not a
fact, because opinions are either not
falsifiable, or the opinion has not been proven or verified.
In
economics,
philosophy, or other social sciences, analysis based on opinions is referred to as normative analysis, as opposed to positive analysis, which is based on scientific observation.

Quotations
If all mankind minus one were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind. --John Stuart Mill, On Liberty (1859).
