Quote by Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt

“- Dostarczenie dowodu należy do tego, kto wysuwa twierdzenie. Jeśli utrzymuję, że centaury istnieją, muszę poprzeć swoją tezę. - Ktoś, kto nie chce wierzyć, zawsze wynajduje powody. - Ktoś, kto chce wierzyć, również!”

“Im jestem starszy, tym lepiej zdaję sobie sprawę, że agnostycyzm stanowi postawę, która jest przeważnie odrzucana. Człowiek musi wiedzieć! Chociaż na świecie są tylko agnostycy wierzący, agnostycy niewierzący i agnostycy obojętni, miliony ludzi upierają się przy mieszaniu wiary z rozumem, nieuznawaniu złożoności umysłu, upraszczaniu pojęć, żeby zmienić w uniwersalną prawdę bardzo osobiste odczucia.”

“If Darwinists are opposed to mentioning scientific problems with their view, you would think they would be even more opposed to mentioning intelligent design. Yet Darwinists have been discussing ID in public school science classes for years... Biology textbooks have been mentioning intelligent design since the late 1990s—but only to misrepresent and disparage it.”

“Sex is, directly or indirectly, the most powerful weapon in the armoury of the Magician; and precisely because there is no moral guide, it is indescribably dangerous. I have given a great many hints, especially in Magick , and The Book of Thoth —some of the cards are almost blatantly revealing; so I have been rapped rather severely over the knuckles for giving children matches for playthings. My excuse has been that they have already got the matches, that my explanations have been directed to add conscious precautions to the existing automatic safeguards.”

“Sex and magic are intertwined experiences—sex is one kind of magic (and can be made more magical without being concerned with sex-magic at any point), and magic can be, while erotic and arousing, not necessarily sexual in the way that is often understood. There is a commonly-held belief that those who practice sex-magic are indulging themselves in wild orgiastic rites at every opportunity. This is rarely the case. After all, if you need to go through lots of occult rigmarole just to get laid, then you're a bit sad, aren't you? Then again, the occult subculture is full of SAD people, desperate to finally get laid and attempting to turn to sex-magic as a last resort.”
