Quote:- Is Dust immortal then, I ask'd him, so that we may see it blowing through the Centuries? But as Walter gave no Answer I jested with him further to break his Melancholy humour: What is Dust, Master Pyne?And he reflected a little: It is particles of Matter, no doubt.Then we are all Dust indeed, are we not?And in a feigned Voice he murmered, For Dust thou art and shalt to Dust return. Then he made a Sour face, but only yo laugh the more.

Quote:- Is God the ultimate mystery (non-answer), or the ultimate answer? If you can’t understand God, why would you worship him? You have, by your admission, no idea what you are worshiping. In fact, it’s clear from the history of Abrahamism that billions of people have worshiped the Devil and called him God. They would of course not have made this fatal error if they had understood God.

Quote:- Is it more probable that nature should go out of her course or that a man should tell a lie? We have never seen, in our time, nature go out of her course. But we have good reason to believe that millions of lies have been told in the same time. It is therefore at least millions to one that the reporter of a miracle tells a lie.

Quote:- Is it not curious, that so vast a being as the whale should see the world through so small an eye, and hear the thunder through an ear which is smaller than a hare's? But if his eyes were broad as the lens of Herschel's great telescope; and his ears capacious as the porches of cathedrals; would that make him any longer of sight, or sharper of hearing? Not at all.—Why then do you try to "enlarge" your mind? Subtilize it

Quote:- Is it possible, in the final analysis, for one human being to achieve perfect understanding of another?We can invest enormous time and energy in serious efforts to know another person, but in the end, how close can we come to that person's essence? We convince ourselves that we know the other person well, but do we really know anything important about anyone?

Quote:- Is it that you want me to stand for what others believe in so that I will be accepted and not judged? If so, I cannot do that. That means I will be turning my back on myself—and I’ve learned if I do not have anyone in my corner—I at least can count on myself.
