“Atatürk'ün sofrasından kimler geçmemiştir ki... Mahalle arkadaşları, silâh arkadaşları, devrim arkadaşları, politikacılar, edipler, şairler,
müzisyenler, bilim adamları, iş adamları, yabancı devlet başkanları, krallar...
İşten ve yurt gezilerinden artan bütün ömrü sofrada geçmiştir denilebilir. Fakat burası hiç bir zaman bir içki ve cümbüş bayağılığına inmemiş, bir sohbet ve tartışma meclisi olarak kalmıştır. Eğlencenin yanı sıra en çetin devlet işlerinin karara bağlandığı bir meclis...

“Atatürk üstelik o zamanki uluslararası camianın psikolojisini de iyi tartmıştır. Kendi kendini rezilane bir şekilde esarete veren bir ulusun kahramanca savaştıktan sonra esir düşen bir ulus kadar saygı göremeyeceği kanaatine sahipti. Zaman, Cengiz ve Timur'a karşı savaşmadan teslim olanların kayırıldığı, direnenlerin ise kılıçtan geçirildiği zaman değildir. Ulusalcılık, ulusal onur gibi kavramlar Avrupa'da hızlı bir yükseliştedir. 'Üstün' ve 'alçak' ırklardan bahsedilmektedir. Atatürk, Türk ulusunun 'alçak' addedilenler safında esir düşmesinin yüksek addedilecek bir toplumun esaretinden çok daha vahim neticeler vereceği kanaatindeydi.”

“Ateista imadijaše da prizna veliko ništa od svega svojega: krvi, misli i mesa. Htio je živjeti i vjerovaše da živi. I u klicanju životu zaboravi na smrt. Ponašaše se kao zaborav bluda, kao ekstaza mase. Ne bijaše dubok; bijaše širok. Plovio je površinom, plovio po sebi i rijetko, na mahove, od slučaja zaronjivao bi u sebe i odmah izmiljio na vrh. A sada mu postane jasno, da je zaražen; da ima u njemu nešto, što se ne da prosuditi iz njegovih pjesama, iz njegova smijeha i njegovih lakih razgovora. Bacil je u njemu, razorni bacil, što se baca blatom na rimu njegovu i ideju njegovu. On već nije pristupačan društvu, ne smije pljuvati na pod, ni piti ne smije iz druge čaše.”

“Aten, a minor solar god – a red disc from which long rays emanated and reached down to earth – was converted into the supreme God, in fact the one and only god, by Akhenaten, the heretic pharaoh. Aten evolved into Jehovah, and Akhenaten’s religion evolved into Jewish monotheism. Akhenaten, or someone very close to him, is the true Moses of the Bible, standing up for the One God against Egyptian polytheism, and leading a mass Exodus of his monotheistic followers away from pagan Egypt to a new Promised Land. Jehovah, therefore, is just a modification of a minor Egyptian sun god.”

“Atención, porque este hombre va a engañarnos. ¿Quién engaña la los demás se engaña a sí mismo? Oh, no vayamos a caer en consideraciones estúpidas, en máximas moralizantes enseñadas en los colegios para que sigamos ligados a una vieja ética de la cual no debemos salirnos, pues, de lo contrario, la gente dejaría de morir en defensa de cruces, patrias, estandartes, nombres propio, idealogías heredadas, conceptos, abstracciones; dejaría de morir sin saber por qué, para reventar simplemente del hígado, o de asco al contemplarse en el espejo, como debe ser si resulta cierto que somos tan... Cuidado, nos engañará. Le importa un carajo engañarse a sí mosmo o no. En primer lugar, engañarnos a nosotros no significa que él se engañe. Puede mentirnos y no creerse el engaño.”

“Athanasius' flight into exile had not simply been one of reaction. He had carefully thought out the proper response to persecution. He wrote: "To all men generally, even to us, this law is given, to flee when persecuted, and to hide when sought after, and not rashly tempt the Lord . . . but that men should be ready, that, when the time comes, or when they are taken, they may contend for the truth even unto death. This rule the blessed martyrs observed in their several persecutions. When persecuted they fled, while concealing themselves they showed fortitude, and when discovered they summitted to martyrdom.”

“Atheism - Your Gain, No Pain!”
“Atheism ... in its philosophic aspect refuses allegiance not merely to a definite concept of God, but it refuses all servitude to the God idea, and opposes the theistic principle as such. Gods in their individual function are not half as pernicious as the principle of theism which represents the belief in a supernatural, or even omnipotent, power to rule the earth and man upon it. It is the absolutism of theism, its pernicious influence upon humanity, its paralyzing effect upon thought and action, which Atheism is fighting with all its power.”

“Atheism ... that bugbear of women and fools ... is the very top and perfection of free-thinking. It is the grand arcanum to which a true genius naturally riseth, by a certain climax or gradation of thought, and without which he can never possess his soul in absolute liberty and repose.”

“Atheism and agnosticism signify the rejection of certain images and concepts of God or of truth, which are historically conditioned and therefore inadequate. Atheism is a challenge to religion to purifiy its images and concepts and come nearer to the truth of divine mystery.”
“Atheism became the salvation of the wise and it was common knowledge that if God is for you then reality was against you. Among the core beliefs that the survivors shared, there were two considered supreme: the right to life, and the wisdom that God was just an imaginary being the religious used to deny the permanence of death.”

“Atheism can benefit no class of people; neither the unfortunate, whom it bereaves of hope, nor the prosperous, whose joys it renders insipid, nor the soldier, of whom it makes a coward, nor the woman whose beauty and sensibility it mars, nor the mother, who has a son to lose, nor the rulers of men, who have no surer pledge of the fidelity of their subjects than religion.”
“Atheism can never be an institution ... it can never be more than a destitution.”
“Atheism cheapens everything it touches - look at the results of communism, the most powerful form of atheism on earth.”
“Atheism comes into rather a bad press and I suppose I'd rather describe myself as a humanist... I don't believe in God. I don't believe there is a God.”

“Atheism exists only in coldness, selfishness, and baseness.”
“Atheism Explained is a gem. It is clear, informative, well-argued, provocative, often witty, and unfailingly interesting. David Ramsay Steele ranges over so many issues that I should be surprised if he were right about everything, but it makes for a most stimulating read. The book is in a different league from Richard Dawkins's The God Delusion, and deserves much greater success.”
“Atheism has always been understood wrongly as much as they understood God itself”
“Atheism has become a major threat to the church. New Atheists tend to be articulate and belligerent. They are aggressively engaging in "atheist evangelism," determined to stamp out every vestige of belief in God, which they insist is not only "stupid" but "wicked."”
“Atheism has been on the rise for years now, and the Bible of the atheists is The Origin of Species.”
“Atheism has no room for human rights.”
“Atheism in its negation of gods is at the same time the strongest affirmation of man, and through man, the eternal yea to life, purpose, and beauty.”

“Atheism in legislation, indifference in matters of religion, and the pernicious maxims which go under the name of Liberal Catholicism are the true causes of the destruction of states; they have been the ruin of France. Believe me, the evil I denounce is more terrible than the Revolution, more terrible even than The Commune. I have always condemned Liberal Catholicism, and I will condemn it again forty times over if it be necessary.”
“Atheism in not simply beyond reason, it is contrary to reason.”
“Atheism is a conclusion reached by the most reasonable methods and one which is not asserted dogmatically but is explained in its every feature by the light of reason. The atheist does not boast of knowing in a vainglorious, empty sense. He understands by knowledge the most reasonable and clear and sound position one can take on the basis of all the evidence at hand. This evidence convinces him that theism is not true, and his logical position, then, is that of atheism.
We repeat that the atheist is one who denies the assumptions of theism. he asserts, in other words, that he doesn't believe in a God because he has no good reason for believing in a God. That's atheism -- and that's good sense.”
