Worse than any severe mental illness, is the illness of bigotry.

Salvation of human life requires disclosure of truth through reason, surpassing bigotry.

If you are able to learn with reason at hand and warmth in heart then you'll start to see the foulness of the primitive fantasies, such as nationalism, fundamentalism, elitism, intellectualism, anti-intellectualism and so on.

Sonnet of PromiseI made a promise with my life,Never to leave your side.How can I maroon you my friend,When you and I are one light.Some call me muy loco,Cause I stand for reason and inclusion.A world where division is sanity,Is but a gutter of superstition.All things have meaning,When we have people next to us.Without their presence to fill our life,Existence is but a futile fuss.Breathing alone is like choking to death.A breath shared is a breath well lived.

It takes a conscious practice of reason to recognize greatness in the making and shallowness in the limelight.

Industry is not the mark of progress - compassion, reason and self-reliance are.

Technology won't save this world - reason won't save this world - faith won't save this world – only responsibility will.

In the world of primitive savages, religion and bigotry go hand in hand. But, in the world of civilized humans, religion and reason must go hand in hand.

People keep asking me, how do I frame my work of science and philosophy in such a humane fashion – somehow they believe there’s some sort of method for doing that – and I can’t manage to convey it to them that I know no other way to put it – if you ask a river, how does it flow the way it does, can the river give you a diagram or method, it can’t – the same is with me – I don’t know any other way in which to present my ideas.
