One of Mitchell's favorite quotes is:""Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?"
- Douglas Adams
"That which can be destroyed by the truth should be."
- P.C. Hodgell
"You can't very well reason with someone when their whole argument is that logic doesn't count."
- Isaac Asimov
âExtraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.â
- Christopher Hitchens
"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race"
- Calvin Coolidge
"Hydrogen is a light odorless gas which, given enough time, thinks about itself"
- Edward R. Harrison
"I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers. I'll believe anything, no matter how wild and ridiculous, if there is evidence for it. The wilder and more ridiculous something is, however, the firmer and more solid the evidence will have...Expand for more
to be."
- Isaac Asimov, The Roving Mind
âTake all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.â
- Bill Hicks
âIf someone disagrees with you all you can do is appeal to scientific values and if he doesnât share those values the conversation is over. If someone doesnât value evidence, what evidence are you going to provide to prove that they should value it? If someone doesnât value logic, what logical argument are you going to provide to show the importance of logic?â
- Sam Harris
"The most important characteristic of a good skeptic is the ability to turn skepticism inward...something I fear may be lost on younger skeptics. It is, fundamentally, the only thing that separates us from fundamentalist thinkers."
- James Randy
âWe are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively outnumbers the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here. We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds, how dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state, from which the vast majority have never stirred.â
- Richard Dawkins".
