Albert Einstein
"A myth is a religion in which no one any longer believes."
James Feibleman
"Hell is an outrage on humanity. When you tell me that your deity made you in his image, I reply that he must have been very ugly."
Victor Hugo
"I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church."
Thomas Paine
"I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature."
Thomas Jefferson
"I do not think that the real reason why people accept religion is anything to do with argumentation. They accept religion on emotional grounds. One is often told that it is a very wrong thing to attack religion, because religion makes men virtuous. So I am told; I have not noticed it."
Bertrand Russell
"I viewed my fellow man not as a fallen angel, but as a risen ape."
Desmond Morris
"In Heaven all the interesting people are missing."
Friedrich Nietzsche

Francois Marie Arouet (Voltaire)
"Ocean: A body of water occupying 2/3 of a world made for man...who has no gills."
Ambrose Bierce

Robert G. Ingersoll
"Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned."
Author Unknown
"Puritanism - the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy."
Henry Mencken
"Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet."
Napoleon Bonaparte
"Religion is fundamentally opposed to everything I hold in veneration - courage, clear thinking, honesty, fairness, and, above all, love of the truth."
Henry Mencken
"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."
Napoleon Bonaparte
"Religion to me has always been the wound, not the bandage."
