“إن الرأي الجديد هو في العادة رأي غريب لم تألفه النفوس بعد. وما دام هذا الرأي غير خاضع للقيم التقليدية السائدة في المجتمع. فهو كفر أو زندقة. وعندما يعتاد عليه الناس ويصبح مألوفاً وتقليداً يدخل في سجل الدين ويمسي المخالفون له زنادقة وكفاراً.”

“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”

“إن الوعظ يجعل الناس شديدين في نقد غيرهم ، فالمقاييس الأخلاقية التي يسمعونها من أفواه الوعاظ عالية جداً . وهم لا يستطيعون تطبيقها على أنفسهم ، فليجأون إلى تطبيقها على غيرهم ، وبذا يكون نقدهم شديداً .”

“Disobedience, in the eyes of any one who has read history, is man's original virtue. It is through disobedience that progress has been made, through disobedience and through rebellion.”

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
