Friedrich Nietzsche
“The most common sort of lie is that by which a man deceives himself: the deception of others is a relatively rare offense.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, The Anti-Christ

“They cannot understand as yet that we are not fighting a political party but a sect of murderers of all contemporary spiritual culture.”
― Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg

J.M. Bush
“The anvil is hard so that it can help shape the blade. If life were easy, we would all be soft and misshapen shards of metal, tossed into a bin.”
― J.M. Bush

Ludwig Feuerbach
“Christianity set itself the goal of fulfilling man’s unattainable desires, but for that very reason ignored his attainable desires. By promising man eternal life, it deprived him of temporal life, by teaching him to trust in God’s help it took away his trust in his own powers; by giving him faith in a better life in heaven, it destroyed his faith in a better life on earth and his striving to attain such a life. Christianity gave man what his imagination desires, but for that very reason failed to give him what he really and truly desires.”
― Ludwig Feuerbach, Lectures on the Essence of Religion

Edward Lee
“Belief is a powerful thing. It shapes the past as well as the future. Once a thing is done and thousands of years have passed, who is to say the manner in which it came to pass? History is what we believe it to be just as God and heaven are what you believe them to be, well, to a point. God does have a definite nature. It's his appearance that changes. Your faith shapes it. There are many different heavens just as there are many different hells and many different types of angels.”
― Edward Lee
