“Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!”

“Di setiap masa nampaknya selalu ada saat yang tak mudah untuk berbicara, tapi tidak gampang untuk diam. Kita tidak tahu pasti bagaimana persisnya kata-kata akan diberi harga, dan apakah sebuah isyarat akan sampai. Di luar pintu, pada saat seperti ini, hanya ada mendung, atau hujan, atau kebisuan, mungkin ketidakacuhan. Semuanya teka-teki.”

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”
