Lewis] Quote:I do not think that the real reason why people accept religion is anything to do with argumentation. They accept religion on emotional grounds.

Not that I am bitter.[Dave Barry] Quote:Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.[Thomas Paine] Quote:First the doctor told me the good news: I was going to have a disease named after me.[Steve Martin] Quote:Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.[Oscar Wilde] Quote:My doctor told me to stop having intimate dinners for four.

Somerset Maugham] Quote:The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.[Adolf Hitler] Quote:Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things.[Adam Smith] Quote:I told my psychiatrist that everyone hates me.
