"To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead."
-Bertrand Russell
"I believe that when I die I shall rot, and nothing of my ego will survive. I am not young, and I love life. But I should scorn to shiver with terror at the thought of annihilation. Happiness is none the less true happiness because it must come to an end, nor do thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting."
-Bertrand Russell
"Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and tortuous executions, the
unrelenting vindictiveness with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we
call it the word of a devil than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and
brutalize mankind."
-Thomas Paine
"It's an incredible con job when you think of it, to believe something now in exchange for life after death. Even corporations with all their reward systems don't try to make it posthumous."
-Gloria Steinem
