Fools! You Think Of "god" As A Sentient Being. God Is The Word Used To Represent A Force. This Force Created Nothing, It Just Helps Things Along. It Does Not Answer Prayers, Although It May Make You Think Of A Way To Solve A Problem. It Has The Power To Influence You, But Not Decide For You.

I Do Not Know Whether There Are Gods, But There Ought To Be.

I Am Not An Athenian Or A Greek, But A Citizen Of The World.

Virtue Cannot Dwell With Wealth Either In A City Or In A House.

When Two Friends Part They Should Lock Up Each Other's Secrets And Exchange Keys. The Truly Noble Mind Has No Resentments.
