Morality Without Religion Quotes

Be your own master, and look at things as a man, as a human being, as a citizen, as a mortal creature.

Marcus Aurelius

Jonathan D. Fitzgerald

Morality does not come to this mortal world from some imaginary paradise. It rises from the neurons of mortal humans.

Belief is a wonderful way to pass the time until the facts come in.
