“I cannot see how a man of any large degree of humorous perception can ever be religious - unless he purposely shut the eyes of his mind and keep them shut by force”
Mark Twain
“The peace loving non-religious man has good cause to worry. It's been my experience that the humblest citizen in all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the King's men. Pro-life hypocrites with a Bible in one hand and a gun in the other will kill you.”
Bobby W. Miller
“If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as if it is, infinite”
William Blake
“To interpose the threat of physical destruction between a man and his perception of reality, is to negate and paralyze his means of survival; to force him to act against his own judgment, is like forcing him to act against his own sight”
Ayn Rand
“Civilization has gotten further and further from the so-called 'natural' man, who uses all his faculties: perception, invention, improvisation.”
Robert Green Ingersoll
“When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see things as they truly are, infinite.”
“It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.”
