"He that will not reason is a bigot; he that cannot reason is a fool; he that dares not reason is a slave"
-W. Drummond

"Religion is unusual among divisible labels in being spectacularly unnecessary. If religious beliefs had any evidence going for them, we might had to respect them in spite of their concomitant unpleasantness. But there is no such evidence. To label people as death-deserving enemies because of disagreements about real world politics is bad enough. To do the same for disagreements about a delusional world inhabited by archangels, demons and imaginary friends is ludicrously tragic."
-Richard Dawkins

“If you want to really hurt your parents, and you don’t have the nerve to be gay, the least you can do is go into the arts. I’m not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”
-Kurt Vonnegut

"Maturity is a bitter disappointment for which no remedy exists, unless laughter could be said to remedy anything"
- Kurt Vonnegut

"Men have never fully used [their] powers to advance the good in life, because they have waited upon some power external to themselves and to nature to do the work they are responsible for doing."
-J. Dewey

"All religions are founded on the fear of the many and the cleverness of the few."
-Stendhal

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself, any direction you choose."
-Dr. Seuss

"Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you."
-Dr. Seuss

"A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death."
-A. Einstein

"The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason."
-Ben Franklin

“We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.”
-Richard Dawkins

"The question before the human race is, whether the God of nature shall govern the world by his own laws, or whether priests and kings shall rule it by fictitious miracles?"
-letter to thomas jefferson

"Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned."
