Text Quotes
Happiness is not a reward - it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment - it is a result (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Happiness is the only good. The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is here. The way to be happy is to make others so (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
I would rather live and love where death is king than have eternal life where love is not (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
In the night of death, hope sees a star, and listening love can hear the rustle of a wing (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
It is a blessed thing that in every age some one has had the individuality enough and courage enough to stand by his own convictions (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Let us put theology out of religion. Theology has always sent the worst to heaven, the best to hell (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)

We need men with moral courage to speak and write their real thoughts, and to stand by their convictions, even to the very death (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
What light is to the eyes - what air is to the lungs - what love is to the heart, liberty is to the soul of man (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
When the will defies fear, when duty throws the gauntlet down to fate, when honor scorns to compromise with death - that is heroism (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
If priests had not been fond of mutton, lambs never would have been sacrified to God. Nothing was ever carried to the temple that the priest could not use, and it always happened that God wanted what his agents liked (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
If we have the right to use our reason, we certainly have the right to act in accordance with it, and no God can have the right to punish us for such action (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Heresy is what the minority believe; it is the name given by the powerful to the doctrines of the weak (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Great virtues may draw attention from defects, they cannot sanctify them. A pebble surrounded by diamonds remains a common stone, and a diamond surrounded by pebbles is still a gem (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Liberty cannot be sacrificed for the sake of temperance, for the sake of morality, or for the sake of anything. It is of more value than everything. Yet some people would destroy the sun to prevent the growth of weeds. Liberty sustains the same relation to all the virtues that the sun does to life (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
If there is one subject in this world worthy of being discussed, worthy of being understood, it is the question of intellectual liberty. Without that, we are simply painted clay (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
I am a believer in liberty. That is my religion to give to every other human being every right that I claim for myself, and I grant to every other human being, not the right because it is his right but instead of granting I declare that it is his right, to attack every doctrine that I maintain, to answer every argument that I may urge in other words, he must have absolute freedom of speech (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
It is hard for many people to give up the religion in which they were born; to admit that their fathers were utterly mistaken, and that the sacred records of their country are but collections of myths and fables (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
There is only one way to be happy, and that is to make somebody else so, and you cannot be happy by going cross lots; you have got to go the regular turnpike road (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
The meanest hut with love in it is a palace fit for the gods, and a palace without love is a den only fit for wild beasts (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
The combined wisdom and genius of all mankind cannot possibly conceive of an argument against liberty of thought (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
It is with men as with other things. The mullein needs only a year, but the oak a century, and the greatest men are those who have continued to grow as long as they have lived (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
I would rather that we all should go to eternal chaos, to black and starless night, than that just one soul should suffer eternal agony (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
If you have ever clothed another with woe, as with a garment of pain, you will never be quite as happy as though you had not done that thing (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Intellect, without heart, is infinitely cruel.... So that, after all, the real aristocracy must be that of goodness where the intellect is directed by the heart (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Every pulpit is a pillory, in which stands a hired culprit, defending the justice of his own imprisonment (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Honest investigation is utterly impossible within the pale of any church, for the reason, that if you think the church is right you will not investigate, and if you think it wrong, the church will investigate you (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
In the presence of death I affirm and reaffirm the truth of all that I have said against the superstitions of the world. I would say that much on the subject with my last breath (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
They knew no better, but I do not propose to follow the example of a barbarian because he was honestly a barbarian (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
Only the very ignorant are perfectly satisfied that they know. To the common man the great problems are easy. He has no trouble in accounting for the universe. He can tell you the origin and destiny of man and the why and wherefore of things (Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes)
