– Bertrand Russell

“These ordained atheists cultivate their egoism, the source of every atheist’s activity, but they defile it and it becomes repulsive whereas the egoism of good atheists is a beautiful principle. They preach raging sermons not because they fear for the eternal damnation of their fold, but because they fear for the eternal damnation of their gold; before every sermon they feel their pockets to see if there’s a hole, and if there is, they mend it with a sermon instead of a patch.”
— N.G. Pomyalovsky
