Freethought Quotes

  • “To be an African woman who walks away from believing is almost unheard of, and that is  precisely why I think it is so necessary to talk about it. I walked away in order to open a world  for my children that no one else in my family history had ever experienced before, and I couldn’t be more proud. I had introduced my children to church when they were younger, and I have spent the last two years explaining my reasons for walking away from religion, including my wish for them to grow up open-minded and nonjudgmental. I have explained how much I want them to grow up knowing that only they are responsible for their own actions, that they have the power to decide for themselves what they want out of life, that their fate is not up to
    some god.”

  • “On being asked the cost of his extensive library of controversial books,

    "These books cost me the governorship of Illinois, and maybe the presidency of the United States as well."”
