I believe in God, only I spell it Nature.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Atheism is a disease of the soul before it becomes an error of understanding.....
Plato
Few men are so obstinate in their atheism, that a pressing danger will not compel them to acknowledgment of a divine power.....
Plato
Atheists put on false courage in the midst of their darkness and misaprehensions, like children who, when they fear to go in the dark,will sing or whistle to keep their courage.
Alexander Pope
My atheism, like that of Spinoza, is true piety towards the universe and denies only gods fashioned by men in their own image to be servants of their human interests.
George Santayana
If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.
Voltaire
An atheist is a man who has no invisible means of support.
John Buchan
To believe in God is impossible - to not believe in Him is absurd
Voltaire
I'm not an athiest. How can you not believe in something that doesn't exist? That's way too convoluted for me.
A. Whitney Brown
Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined, and imprisoned, yet we have not advanced one inch toward uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half of the world fools and the other half hypocrites.
Thomas Jefferson
I don't know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn't.
Jules Renard
I have heard an atheist defined as a man who had no invisible means of support.
John Buchan
No, I don't know that atheists should be regarded as citizens, nor should they be regarded as patriotic. This is one nation under God. I support the separation of church and state. I'm just not very high on atheists.
George Herbert Walker Bush
If there were no God, there would be no atheists.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
