Atheism Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Atheism

1.
An atheist is a man who has no invisible means of support.
John Buchan

2.
What you don't understand is that it is possible to be an atheist, it is possible not to know if God exists or why He should, and yet to believe that man does not live in a state of nature but in history, and that history as we know it now began with Christ, it was founded by Him on the Gospels.
Pasternak, Boris

3.
An atheist is a man who believes himself an accident.
Thompson, Francis

4.
There are few people so stubborn in their atheism who when danger is pressing in will not acknowledge the divine power.
Plato

5.
We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.
Richard Dawkins

6.
By night an atheist half believes in God.
Young, Edward

7.
When I told the people of Northern Ireland that I was an atheist, a woman in the audience stood up and said,yes, but is it the God of the Catholics or the God of the Protestants in whom you don't believe?
Crisp, Quentin

8.
There are no atheists in foxholes.
Cummings, William T.

9.
I'm an atheist and I thank God for it.
Shaw, George Bernard

10.
I am a daylight atheist.
Behan, Brendan F.

11.
I'm still an atheist, thank God.
Luis Bunuel

12.
Now we have no God. We have had two: the old God that our fathers handed down to us, that we hated, and never liked; the new one that we made for ourselves, that we loved; but now he has flitted away from us, and we see what he was made of -- the shadow of our highest ideal, crowned and throned. Now we have no God.
Schreiner, Olive

13.
Nobody talks so constantly about God as those who insist that there is no God.
Heywood Broun

14.
You've got your phenomenon on one hand. Concrete and knowable. On the other hand you've got the incomprehensible. You call it God, but to me, God or no, it remains just that, the unknowable.
Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess

15.
We find the most terrible form of atheism, not in the militant and passionate struggle against the idea of God himself, but in the practical atheism of everyday living, in indifference and torpor. We often encounter these forms of atheism among those who are formally Christians.
Berdyaev, Nicolai A.

16.
There is no God, Nature sufficeth unto herself; in no wise hath she need of an author.
Sade, Marquis De

17.
Among the repulsions of atheism for me has been its drastic uninterestingness as an intellectual position. Where was the ingenuity, the ambiguity, the humanity (in the Harvard sense) of saying that the universe just happened to happen and that when we're dead we're dead?
Updike, John

18.
An atheist is a man who looks through a telescope and tries to explain all that he can't see.

19.
No one can be an unbeliever nowadays. The Christian Apologists have left one nothing to disbelieve.
Munro, Hector Hugh

20.
An atheist may be simply one whose faith and love are concentrated on the impersonal aspects of God.
Weil, Simone

21.
First, whenever a man talks loudly against religion, always suspect that it is not his reason, but his passions, which have got the better of his creed. A bad life and a good belief are disagreeable and troublesome neighbors, and where they separate, depend upon it,'Tis for no other cause but quietness sake.
Sterne, Laurence

22.
To you I'm an atheist; to God, I'm the Loyal Opposition.
Woody Allen

23.
Ask a deeply religious Christian if he'd rather live next to a bearded Muslim that may or may not be plotting a terror attack, or an atheist that may or may not show him how to set up a wireless network in his house. On the scale of prejudice, atheists don't seem so bad lately.
Scott Adams

24.
If there were no God, there would be no Atheists.
G. K. Chesterton

25.
If you don't believe in God, all you have to believe in is decency. Decency is very good. Better decent than indecent. But I don't think it's enough.
Macmillan, Harold

26.
I have too much respect for the idea of God to make it responsible for such an absurd world.
Georges Duhamel

27.
The divine is perhaps that quality in man which permits him to endure the lack of God.
Rostand, Jean

28.
If there is no God, everything is permitted.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor

29.
An atheist is a man who watches a Notre Dame -- Southern Methodist University game and doesn't care who wins.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

30.
I always admired atheists. I think it takes a lot of faith.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

31.
IÆm the worldÆs least happy atheist. I miss having religious faith, but trying to have it seems like trying to be in love with someone that youÆre not in love with.
Lisa Williams

32.
Here we are, we're alone in the universe, there's no God, it just seems that it all began by something as simple as sunlight striking on a piece of rock. And here we are. We've only got ourselves. Somehow, we've just got to make a go of it. We've only ourselves.
Osborne, John

33.
He was an embittered atheist (the sort of atheist who does not so much disbelieve in God as personally dislike Him).
Orwell, George

34.
I can't believe in the God of my Fathers. If there is one Mind which understands all things, it will comprehend me in my unbelief. I don't know whose hand hung Hesperus in the sky, and fixed the Dog Star, and scattered the shining dust of Heaven, and fired the sun, and froze the darkness between the lonely worlds that spin in space.
Kersh, Gerald

35.
It is the final proof of God's omnipotence that he need not exist in order to save us.
Peter De Vries

36.
When ever a person talks loudly against religion, always suspect that it is not their reason, but their passions, which have got the better of their beliefs. A bad life and a good belief are disagreeable and troublesome neighbors; and when they separate, depend on it that it is for the sake of peace and quiet.
Sterne, Laurence

37.
Atheism is easy in fair weather.
Dunn, Ronald

38.
He must pull out his own eyes, and see no creature, before he can say, he sees no God; He must be no man, and quench his reasonable soul, before he can say to himself, there is no God.
Donne, John

39.
Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.
Thomas Jefferson

40.
The worst moment for the atheist is when he is really thankful and has nobody to thank.
Dante Gabriel Rossetti

41.
Religion is about turning untested belief into unshakeable truth through the power of institutions and the passage of time.
Richard Dawkins

42.
We shall say without hesitation that the atheist who is moved by love is moved by the Spirit of God; an atheist who lives by love is saved by his faith in the God whose existence (under that name) he denies.
Temple, Sir William

43.
Here lies an Atheist: All Dressed Up and No Place to Go.
Epitaph

44.
If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.
Voltaire

45.
How to trap an atheist: Serve him a fine meal, then ask him if he believes there is a cook.

46.
And as for the unbelievers, their works are as a mirage in a spacious plain which the man athirst supposes to be water, till when he comes to it, he finds it is nothing; there indeed he finds God, and He pays him his account in full; (and God is swift at the reckoning).
Qur'an

47.
I don't know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn't.
Jules Renard

48.
If you can't believe in God, chances are your God is too small.
Phillips, James

49.
An atheist is a person who has no invisible means of support
Huxley, Aldous

50.
During the crusades all were religious mad, and now all are mad for want of it.
Stedman, Captain J. G.
