The Soul is the voice of the body's interests.

To me, it seems a dreadful indignity to have a soul controlled by geography.

It adds to the glory both of soul and body

My atheism, like that of Spinoza, is true piety towards the universe and denies only gods fashioned by men in their own image, to be servants of their human interests.

Each religion, by the help of more or less myth, which it takes more or less seriously, proposes some method of fortifying the human soul and enabling it to make its peace with its destiny.

There is nothing the body suffers the soul may not profit by.
