Freethought Quotes

  • “The most practical life is the moral life and ... the moral life is the only road to survival.”
    by Saul Alinsky
    Rules for Radicals
  • “Along with the usual secular values (such as appropriate tolerance/intolerance, morality, critical thinking, appreciation for reason and science), don’t forget to impart social graces, playfulness, and humor. Those go far in our short existences.”
    by Dale McGowan
    Parenting Beyond Belief: On Raising Ethical, Caring Kids without Religion
  • “How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, “This is better than we thought! The Universe is much bigger than our prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant?” Instead they say, “No, no, no! My god is a little god, and I want him to stay that way.” A religion, old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the Universe as revealed by modern science might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths.”
    by Carl Sagan
