Quotations regarding 'Atheism'

Choose a letter: 
Atheism is aristocratic; the idea of a great Being that watches over oppressed innocence and punishes triumphant crime is altogether popular.
Maximilien Robespierre, French Leader (1758-1794)
Selfishness is the only real atheism; aspiration, unselfishness, the only real religion.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, American President (1882-1945)
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.
George Santayana, American Philosopher (1863-1952)
If atheism is to be used to express the state of mind in which God is identified with the unknowable, and theology is pronounced to be a collection of meaningless words about unintelligible chimeras, then I have no doubt, and I think few people doubt.
Leslie Stephen, English Author (1832-1904)
I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.
Orson Welles, American Actor (1915-1985)
Selfishness is the only real atheism; unselfishness the only real religion.
Israel Zangwill, English Novelist (1864-1926)
