Quotes by Robert G. Ingersoll, The Christian Religion An Enquiry
"Kindness is strength. Good-nature is often mistaken for virtue, and good health sometimes passes for genius. Anger blows out the lamp of the mind. In the examination of a great and important question, every one should be serene, slow-pulsed, and calm. Intelligence is not the foundation of arrogance. Insolence is not logic. Epithets are the arguments of malice."
"There are in nature neither rewards nor punishments — there are consequences."
