I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.

It often turns out on closer inspection that acts of apparent altruism are really selfishness in disguise.

We are survival machines -- robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes. This is a truth which still fills me with astonishment.

Love lays heavy burdens on the loved one$$$ sometimes.

Wisdom may be rented on the experience of other people$$$ but we buy it at an inordinate price before we make it our own forever.

Nothing$$$ like something$$$ happens anywhere.

History is rarely made by reasonable men.

Language is the house of Being.

Do not indoctrinate your children. Teach them how to think for themselves$$$ how to evaluate evidence$$$ and how to disagree with you.

I'm not a hypochondriac$$$ but my gynaecologist firmly believes I am.
