On every point of vantage are pagodasstupid stalagmites of stagnant piety.” “It sometimes strikes me that the whole of science is a piece of impudence; that nature can afford to ignore our impertinent interference. If our monkey mischief should ever reach the point of blowing up the earth by decomposing an atom, and even annihilated the sun himself, I cannot really suppose that the universe would turn a hair.” “Your body must become familiar with its deathin all its possible forms and degreesas a self-evident, imminent, and emotionally neutral step on the way towards the goal you have found worthy of your life.” “Of all men living [priests] are our greatest enemies. If it were possible, they would extinguish the very light of nature, turn the world into a dungeon, and keep mankind for ever in chains and darkness.” |
