Christopher Hitchens Zitate

Religion is part of the human make-up. It's also part of our cultural and intellectual history. Religion was our first attempt at literature, the texts, our first attempt at cosmology, making sense of where we are in the universe, our first attempt at health care, believing in faith healing, our first attempt at philosophy.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Religion ist Teil des menschlichen Makeups. Es ist auch Teil unserer Kultur- und Geistesgeschichte. Religion war unser erster Versuch in der Literatur, die Texte, unser erster Versuch in der Kosmologie, ein Verständnis dafür, wo wir uns im Universum befinden, unser erster Versuch der Gesundheitsfürsorge, der Glaube an die Glaubensheilung, unser erster Versuch in der Philosophie.

We don't know what our health care costs are going to be. We don't know what our tax rates are going to be. We don't know what our interest rates are going to be. We don't know what our energy costs are going to be. All these uncertainties are being driven by the Government's agenda. What we really need to do is get Government to step back.

There was a time I was no longer going to be black. I was going to be an 'intellectual.' When I was first looking around for colleges, thinking of colleges I couldn't afford to go to, I was thinking of being a philosopher. I began to understand then that much of my feelings about race were negative.
