Robert Green Ingersoll
  • It is a blessed thing that in every age some one has had the individuality enough and courage enough to stand by his own convictions.

  • Anger is a wind which blows out the lamp of the mind.

  • Let us put theology out of religion. Theology has always sent the worst to heaven, the best to hell.

  • The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart.

  • We need men with moral courage to speak and write their real thoughts, and to stand by their convictions, even to the very death.
