Steven Pinker
“As we care about more of humanity, we’re apt to mistake the harms around us for signs of how low the world has sunk rather than how high our standards have risen.”
Steven Pinker, Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress

Carl Sagan
“Anything you don't understand, you attribute to God. God for you is where you sweep away all the mysteries of the world, all the challenges to our intelligence. You simply turn your mind off and say God did it.”
Carl Sagan, Contact

Afonso Cruz
“Encheremos o mundo de coisas preciosas. Serão tantas que os homens passarão por elas julgando-as banais.”
Afonso Cruz, Para Onde Vão Os Guarda-Chuvas

Steven Pinker
“Left-wing and right-wing political ideologies have themselves become secular religions, providing people with a community of like-minded brethren, a catechism of sacred beliefs, a well-populated demonology, and a beatific confidence in the righteousness of their cause.”
Steven Pinker, Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress

Afonso Cruz
“265d. Mohamed Ussud descobriu numa gruta o Livro do Destino. Escrito numa língua estranha, ele levou anos infindáveis a tentar percebê-la. Por fim, lá conseguiu ler umas linhas, que diziam assim: «Quando enfim Ussud, nosso servo, conseguiu ler estas linhas, morreu».”
Afonso Cruz, Para Onde Vão Os Guarda-Chuvas
