Tolerance is not infinite patience, but slain patience; patience that has lost its hope and love and has thrown in the towel.

The man who is most aggressive in teaching tolerance is the most intolerant of all: he wants a world full of people too timid and ashamed to really disagree with anything.

It is sometimes but the mere hope for enjoyment that allows one to enjoy something, even when he is not really enjoying it at the moment.

I believe in evolution in the sense that a short-tempered man is the successor of a crybaby.

A god who gave us everything we wanted would be the most malevolent god of all. With an infantile curiosity, we insist on tasting the cockroach on the floor while our father is preparing a magnificent feast for us.

It's not about whether or not someone is a bigot, but whether or not the argument which that someone is arguing is worth being a bigot about.
