Gloria Steinem
I cannot be angry at God, in whom I do not believe.
Simone de Beauvoir
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.
Galileo Galilei
At a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
George Orwell
