" I sort of gave up on this whole human adventure a long time ago. I've divorced myself from it emotionally.

And I don't think it's fixable"
George Carlin
"If God is willing to prevent evil, but is not able to
Then He is not omnipotent.
If He is able, but not willing
Then He is malevolent.
If He is both able and willing
Then whence cometh evil?
If He is neither able nor willing
Then why call Him God?"
--Epicurus
"There are people who strictly deprive themselves of each and every eatable, drinkable, and smokable which has in any way acquired a shady reputation. They pay this price for health. And health is all they get for it. How strange it is. It is like paying out your whole fortune for a cow that has gone dry." --Mark Twain
"Quotation, a serviceable substitute for wit." ~Oscar Wilde
"When others asked the truth of me, I was convinced it was not the truth they wanted, but an illusion they could bear to live with." ~Anais Nin
"The question before the human race is, whether the God of nature shall govern the world by his own laws, or whether priests and kings shall rule it by fictitious miracles." - John Adams
"Theology: The effort to explain the unknowable in terms of the not worth knowing."
"Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd." ~Francois Marie Arouet "
"Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift
That is why they call it the present"
Bonus points to whoever points out where I got most of these.
