Man Is A Moral Being,

Irrespective Of Any External, Regulatory Force, Our Capacity For Feeling Is In Itself An Insatiable And Bottomless Abyss.

It Is Science, And Not Religion, Which Has Taught Men That Things Are Complex And Difficult To Understand.

Man Is A Moral Being, Only Because He Lives In Society. Let All Social Life Disappear And Morality Will Disappear With It.

Even One Well-made Observation Will Be Enough In Many Cases, Just As One Well-constructed Experiment Often Suffices For The Establishment Of A Law.

For A Long Time It Has Been Known That The First Systems Of Representations With Which Men Have Pictured To Themselves The World And Themselves Were Of Religious Origin. There Is No Religion That Is Not A Cosmology At The Same Time That It Is A Speculation Upon Divine Things. If Philosophy And The Sciences Were Born Of Religion, It Is Because Religion Began By Taking The Place Of The Sciences And Philosophy.
