“This is what I meant when I said the atheistic worldview requires intellectual courage. It requires moral courage, too. As an atheist, you abandon your imaginary friend, you forgo the comforting props of a celestial father figure to bail you out of trouble. You are going to die, and you’ll never see your dead loved ones again. There’s no holy book to tell you what to do, tell you what’s right or wrong. You are an intellectual adult. You must face up to life, to moral decisions. But there is dignity in that grown-up courage. You stand tall and face into the keen wind of reality.”
― Christopher Hitchens, The Four Horsemen: The Conversation That Sparked an Atheist Revolution

“No weapon is more powerful than he who aims it.”
― Alex Rutherford, Raiders from the North
