In the ordinary man, injustice rouses a passionate desire for vengeance; . . . where there is a great deal of pride and vanity, there also will there be a great desire of vengeance.

Hope is the result of confusing the desire that something should take place with the probability that it will.
Quote: Arthur Schopenhauer
Arthur Schopenhauer, Ph.D., German Philosopher, Atheist
Ignorance is degrading only when found in company with riches. The poor man is restrained by poverty and need: labor occupies his thoughts, and takes the place of knowledge. But rich men who are ignorant live for their lusts only, and are like the beasts of the field; as may be seen every day: and they can also be reproached for not having used wealth and leisure for that which gives them their greatest value.
Quote: David Eller
If America is a Christian country because it was founded by Christians, is it also a white country because it was founded by whites? A male country because it was founded by males?
Quote: David Eller
Atheist do not ‘believe’ there is no god, they conclude on the basis of fact and logic that there is none. This has nothing to do with belief whatsoever.
