"It's hard to believe in a god that has given me a brain and the ability to reason but has aksed me to use neither."
"Only a rational being can experience beauty..."
"The mind of man, cleansed of secondary and merely temporal concerns, beholds with the radiance of a cleansed mirror a reflection of the rational mind of God. Reason puts you in touch with God…the mind of man cleared of its fallibilities is sufficiently capable of the knowledge of God."
"The sleep of reason produces monsters."
"To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead."
