"Religious liberty might be supposed to mean that everybody is free to discuss religion. In practice it means that hardly anybody is allowed to mention it."
"That is the one eternal education: to be sure enough that something is true that you dare to tell it to a child."
"Science must not impose any philosophy, any more than the telephone must tell us what to say."
"Surely we cannot take an open question like the supernatural and shut it with a bang, turning the key of the madhouse on all the mystics of history. You cannot take the region of the unknown and calmly say that, though you know nothing about it, you know all the gates are locked. We do not know enough about the unknown to know that it is unknowable."
"Humor can get in under the door while seriousness is still fumbling at the handle."
