Mutation is random; natural selection is the very opposite of random.

Much as we might wish to believe otherwise, universal love and the welfare of the species as a whole are concepts which simply do not make evolutionary sense.

Do not indoctrinate your children. Teach them how to think for themselves, how to evaluate evidence, and how to disagree with you.

Faith is belief without evidence and reason; coincidentally that's also the definition of delusion.

Evolution is just a theory? Well, so is gravity and I don't see you jumping out of buildings.

Such delusions of grandeur to think that a God with a hundred billion galaxies on his mind would give a tuppenny damn who you sleep with, or indeed whether you believe in him.

Let the green girl go!

Making a movie is like getting married. You're like, "Am I going to marry this project? Am I ready for that kind of commitment?"

Eisenhower warned us about the military-industrial complex and the damage it could do to society.
