'The four most over-rated things in life are champagne, lobster, anal sex and picnics.'

From the Hitch.

A few quotes to raise a smile (hopefully).
“Faith is the surrender of the mind; it's the surrender of reason, it's the surrender of the only thing that makes us different from other mammals. It's our need to believe, and ...[text shortened]... That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.”
Originally posted by PsychoPawnYeah, like "There is no God."
Definitely a great quote. I think it ranks up there with Sagan's:
"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence"
Hitchens was a great writer who was impressive in how he stood up for what he believed in. I disagreed with a number of things with him, but agreed with plenty. No matter what, the world lost a valuable voice.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou know I share you views (generally) on war, but I do believe that some deaths actually (should) honour the fallen.
