The Quotable Atheist

Ammunition for Nonbelievers, Political Junkies, Gadflies, and Those Generally Hell-Bound



Jack Huberman
January 2007     ISBN: 1560259698


A treasure trove of quotes and aphorisms by philosophers, scientists, poets, writers, artists, entertainers, and political figures.

Sensing a backlash against the fundamentalism and ignorance that have made the United States a worldwide laughingstock, best-selling author Jack Huberman has amassed quotes and aphorisms that will delight and hearten, while also challenging nonbelievers -- and perhaps even make believers think again.

The colorful cast of atheist, agnostic, cynical, and spiritual characters includes: Woody Allen, Lance Armstrong, Bj�rk, Buddha, George Carlin, Noam Chomsky, Larry Flynt, E.M. Forster, Benjamin Franklin, Sigmund Freud, Galileo, Matt Groening, Stephen Hawking, Christopher Hitchens, Thomas Jefferson, John Lennon, the Marquis de Sade, Carl Sagan, Sarah Silverman, Gertrude Stein, Howard Stern, Oscar Wilde, Virginia Woolf, and Frank Zappa.
