God is not dumb, that he should speak no more; If thou hast wanderings in the wilderness And find'st not Sinai, 'tis thy soul is poor.
- quote by James Russell Lowell
- quote by Robert A. Heinlein
Government oppressed the body of the wage-slave, but Religion oppressed his mind, and poisoned the stream of progress at its source.
- quote by Upton Sinclair
G__ knows I'm no the thing I should be, Nor am I even the thing I could be, But twenty times I rather would be An atheist clean, Than under gospel colours hid be, Just for a screen.
- quote by Robert Burns
He made it a part of his religion, never to say grace to his meat.
- quote by Jonathan Swift
His religion at best is an anxious wish; like that of Rabelais, "a great Perhaps".
- quote by Thomas Carlyle
History does not record anywhere at any time a religion that has any rational basis. Religion is a crutch for people not strong enough to stand up to the unknown without help. But, like dandruff, most people do have a religion and spend time and money on it and seem to derive considerable pleasure from fiddling with it.
- quote by Robert A. Heinlein
- quote by Robert A. Heinlein
How admirable is that religion which, while it seems to have in view only the felicity of another world, is at the same time the highest happiness of this.
- quote by Charles de Montesquieu
Human pride / Is skilful to invent most serious names / To hide its ignorance. The name of God / Has fenced about all crime with holiness.
- quote by Percy Bysshe Shelley
