Believing is easier than thinking; that's why there will always be more believers than thinkers. However, the results of god-belief are often far more mental trials than those of nonbelief. It is quite difficult to ascertain the wishes of an invisible being.

We all behave as though what we think is true, is true.

We tend to think of politicians as time-servers and slackers. But on those committees they usually have an interest in the subject. And they're quite clever. I've seen them pick people apart.

I just want to get through each day without the need to shut my eyes for 10 minutes.

There is little difference in the knowledge held by those who can't learn and those who won't.

People ask whether I put the politics first, journalism first or the comedy first; it doesn't really matter. I'm just playing with the cards that I have been dealt because I really love doing what I do.

Most true believers, when faced with evidence that contradicts their beliefs, will hold on to those beliefs even more strongly.
