Quotes
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.
— Voltaire
A man's dreams are an index to his greatness.
Once we overcome our fear of being tiny, we find ourselves on the threshold of a vast and awesome universe that utterly dwarfs - in time, in space, and in potential - the tidy anthropocentric proscenium of our ancestors.
Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.
Life is sacred, that is to say it is the supreme value to which all other values are subordinate.
Every one of us is precious in the cosmic perspective. If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another.
Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, it takes religion.
The dream was always running ahead of me. To catch up, to live for a moment in unison with it, that was the miracle.
