Freethought Quotes

  • “I do believe in humanism, and I believe that we should treat each other with respect and care and look after each other. All human beings should have an equal chance to survive in society, and inequality is a big problem in society.”
    by Stellan Skarsgard
  • “It is only the savage, whether of the African bush or the American gospel tent, who pretends to know the will and intent of god exactly and completely.”
    by H.L. Mencken
  • “All gods who receive homage are cruel. All gods dispense suffering without reason. Otherwise they would not be worshipped. Through indiscriminate suffering men know fear and fear is the most divine emotion. It is the stones for altars and the beginning of wisdom. Half gods are worshipped in wine and flowers. Real gods require blood.”
    by Zora Neale Hurston, author, anthropologist, and filmmaker
