O love, if I regret the age when one savors you, it is not for the hour of pleasure, but for the one that follows it.

Plant and your spouse plants with you weed and you weed alone.

Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.

No true believer could be intolerant or a persecutor. If I were a magistrate and the law carried the death penalty against atheists, I would begin by sending to the stake whoever denounced another.

We are born weak, we need strength helpless, we need aid foolish, we need reason. All that we lack at birth, all that we need when we come to man's estate, is the gift of education.
