I'm always surprised when the corporate world does stupid things, because they're often not very stupid in hindsight.

The whole world is pretending the breakthrough is in technology. The bottleneck is really in art.

I'm a hardcore libertarian - I want everything legal - but I also believe that you have the right to free association.

The word ‘holiday’ comes from ‘holy day’ and holy means ‘exalted and worthy of complete devotion.’ By that definition, all days are holy. Life is holy. Atheists have joy every day of the year, every holy day. We have the wonder and glory of life. We have joy in the world before the lord is come. We’re not going for the promise of life after death; we’re celebrating life before death…For atheists, everything in the world is enough and every day is holy. Every day is an atheist holiday. It’s a day that we’re alive.

In my run-ins with Christians... I find that they really are good moral people. And we overlap on everything, and they don't seem to be the kind of people that are waiting to hear voices to tell them what to do.

Democracy without respect for individual rights sucks. It's just ganging up against the weird kid, and I'm always the weird kid.

We have to fight for the freedom to be stupid, and smoking is one of the best ways to fight for your freedom, to be just as stupid as you can be.
