Freethought Quotes

  • “The philosopher has never killed any priests, whereas the priest has killed a great many philosophers.”
    by Denis Diderot
  • “I'll tell you what you did with Atheists for about 1500 years. You outlawed them from the universities or any teaching careers, besmirched their reputations, banned or burned their books or their writings of any kind, drove them into exile, humiliated them, seized their properties, arrested them for blasphemy. You dehumanised them with beatings and exquisite torture, gouged out their eyes, slit their tongues, stretched, crushed, or broke their limbs, tore off their breasts if they were women, crushed their scrotums if they were men, imprisoned them, stabbed them, disembowelled them, hanged them, burnt them alive. And you have nerve enough to complain to me that I laugh at you.”
    by Madalyn Murray O'Hair
  • “The infliction of cruelty with a good conscience is a delight to moralists — that is why they invented hell.”
    by Bertrand Russell
