Ambrose Bierce

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

To speak of God, to think of God, is in every respect to show what one is made of. I have always wagered against God and I regard the little that I have won in this world as simply the outcome of this bet.

Everything that is doddering, squint-eyed, vile, polluted and grotesque is summoned up for me in that one word: God!

Andre Breton

John Dewey, Democracy and Educat

Every man, in his own opinion, forms an exception to the ordinary rules of morality.

William Hazlitt
