If one synchronized swimmer drowns, do the rest drown too?

I make fun of people who are religious, because they're fundamentally weak.

Engineers at General Motors have developed a revolutionary new engine whose only function is to lubricate itself.

I have a lot of things [in me] that are childlike and innocent and sweet.

Someone said, and rightfully, that "property is theft'." There's no way a man can stand and tell me that he owns an apple tree. I just don't believe you. And so this pursuit of position and money and power, they are all wrapped up into one package that I think is crippling, debilitating and limiting. And unfortunately, people get sucked into it and then they've got you on the treadmill. You know: ''You've got to have a good job'' and "You've got to have a good education'' - which is another word for indoctrination. We're never going to rise above these limitations we've placed on ourselves.

That invisible hand of Adam Smith seems to offer an extended middle finger to an awful lot of people.

Religion cruelly exploits our need to feel connected.
