Text Quotes

I don't believe rape is inevitable or natural. If I did, I would have no reason to be here. If I did, my political practice would be different than it is.

It is because we believe in your humanity, against all the evidence (Reason Quotes)
The faith in an afterlife, however much our reason ridicules it, very modestly extends our faith that each moment of our consciousness will be followed by another - that a coherent matrix has been prepared for this precious self of ours. The guarantee that our self enjoys an intended relation to the outer world is most, if not all, of what we ask from religion. God is the self projected onto reality by our natural and necessary optimism. He is the not-me personified (Reason Quotes)
Philosophy and science have not always been friendly toward the idea of God, the reason being they are dedicated to the task of accounting for things and are impatient with anything that refuses to give an account of itself.

What is a wife and what is a harlot? What is a church and what is a theatre? Are they two and not one? Can they exist separate? Are not religion and politics the same thing? Brotherhood is religion. O demonstrations of reason dividing families in cruelty and pride! (Reason Quotes)
I hate polite conversation. I hate it when people stand around and go, 'Hi, how are you?' I hate words that don't have any reason or meaning. Also I hate it when people smoke in elevators and closed in places. It's just so rude (Reason Quotes)
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god (Reason Quotes)
Sometimes you just need a good cry, even if you don't know the reason why you are crying (Reason Quotes)
I am pleading for the future. I am pleading for a time when hatred and cruelty will not control the hearts of men, when we can learn by reason and judgment and understanding and faith that all life is worth saving, and that mercy is the highest attribute of man (Reason Quotes)
If forgers and malefactors are put to death by the secular power, there is much more reason for excommunicating and even putting to death one convicted of heresy (Reason Quotes)
The reason why we can't let go of someone is because deep inside we still have hope (Reason Quotes)
The reason that fiction is more interesting than any other form of literature, to those who really like to study people, is that in fiction the author can really tell the truth without humiliating himself (Reason Quotes)
The past is our definition. We may strive with good reason to escape it, or to escape what is bad in it. But we will escape it only by adding something better to it (Reason Quotes)
You are always a valuable, worthwhile human being - not because anybody says so, not because you're successful, not because you make a lot of money - but because you decide to believe it and for no other reason (Reason Quotes)

The reason I talk to myself is that I'm the only one whose answers I accept (Reason Quotes)

I know that I can sing. That's the reason I started playing music when I was twelve years old (Reason Quotes)
There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority and science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win, because it works (Reason Quotes)
The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history. The reason is not political or economic but technological - technologies that flowed directly from advances in basic science (Reason Quotes)
Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. Do not count on them. Leave them alone (Reason Quotes)
My wife and I have five children. And the reason why we have five children is because we Do Not...Want...Six (Reason Quotes)
At times to be silent is to lie. You will win because you have enough brute force. But you will not convince. For to convince you need to persuade. And in order to persuade you would need what you lack: Reason and Right (Reason Quotes)
Partiality is, as we have seen, an accompaniment of the existence of interest, since this means sharing, partaking, taking sides in some movement. All the more reason, therefore, for an attitude of mind which actively welcomes suggestions and relevant information from all sides (Reason Quotes)
