Religion is induced insanity.

Two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer.

Religion has caused more misery to all of mankind in every stage of human history than any other single idea.

An Atheists loves himself and his fellow man instead of a god. An Atheist thinks that heaven is something for which we should work for now - here on earth - for all men together to enjoy.

There is no God. There's no heaven. There's no hell. There are no angels. When you die, you go in the ground, the worms eat you.

The fear of hell is the basis for the Christian faith.

I feel that everyone who wants to say anything, do anything, should be able to say anything or do anything, within the limits of not hurting another person.

... religion is a crutch, and only the crippled need crutches.

You hate me because I am the embodiment of all your doubts.

I want three words: Woman, Atheist, Anarchist. That's me.

This crusade to separate church and state is only one expression of my raison d'être. I'm an atheist, but I'm also an anarchist, and a feminist, and an integrationist.

And he calls it playing? Like, whatever happened to chess? Or cards? Or tag?

Everyone seems to be playing well within the boundaries of his usual rule set. I have yet to hear anyone say something that seemed likely to mitigate the idiocy of this age.

Written poetry is different. Best thing is to see it in performance first, then read it. Performance is more provocative.

A peaceful home is as sacred a place as any chapel or cathedral.

To connect with the fairies... go outdoors.

Hospitality should have no other nature than love.

We must ensure that these acts of terror do not accomplish in a slow burn what the fires of the World Trade Center and Pentagon could not - subversively destroying the foundation of our democracy.

I write what I write and I honestly don't care if it gets on or not. I'm writing to see if I can find out some of what I think about any number of situations. I work it out in the writing.

Words are nets through which all truth escapes.

The friend in my adversity I shall always cherish most.
