Just wanted to say that I love all of your fantastic work with all my heart, and your collected quotes are some of the finest I have ever read. You have earned all of my kudos and respect, and I hope that others will learn a lot from you and your excellent wisdom.

Ah, hard to keep track really. Although some of them - Futura, Tw Cen MT, Army Chalk, Typewriter, Optimus Princeps, Trajan, Nyala off top of my head.

ah, thank you. I mean, I like to make quotes too, but somehow the font always look a little bit off. could you take a look here: [link] and suggest what is the appropriate font? (if you dislike what is written, just ignore it. just concentrate at the font )
Thank you very much

Looks fine to me You could probably improve on the design though.

Hi, just to say Im not copying your page by adding so many to my favourites, I just liked them so much and am trying to start something similar, hopefully eventually also my own thoughts.
Love your page.

What a diverse collection. I'm assuming you've read about Cargo Cult Science from Feynman too? Or perhaps more relevant to the anti-rationalism of religious fundamentalists, Elliott Sober criticising creationism and intelligent design. Also from his "Core Questions in Philosophy" there's a wealth of quotable material.
On the note of seeing Asimov - recalling his infamous quip on anti-intellectualism and democracy, would you have read Richard Hofstadter on the same topic? Not necessarily relevant to your location considering it's centred on America, but the investigation into the topic has widely been regarded as a landmark analysis. Susan Jacoby is said to have picked up the mantle on the same subject, but I'm a bit undecided about her.

Thanks for the recommendations! Yep, I've read most of Feynman's works, obviously - but the rest sounds great, I'd have to dig them up and make a few quotes on them then

Thanks! Of course philosophy is my area of interest, but I wouldn't call myself a philosopher though.

This is so great! A collection of level-headed, non-fanatical statements that appeal to a sense of reason instead of rehashing this party's statement or this groups position over and over - thank you for providing such welcome respite from the world of internet opinion debates!

I just like to say, I like your gallery. Seeing all these quotes from a lot of people makes me feel like I'm not alone in this crazy world ruled by religion, stupid ideals and just plain ignorence. It's hard for me because I also have been poisoned with some religious dogma's in my youth and sometimes it's hard to overcome them, even when it's just Logical to do so. I sure hope i can prevent my sons mind to be poisoned in this way and let him grow up with a free and open mind. Thanks for collecting the words of the like-minded, keep it up.
