More quotes by Richard Dawkins
The physicist's problem is the problem of ultimate origins and ultimate natural laws. The biologist's problem is the problem of complexity.
Richard Dawkins
Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born
Richard Dawkins
There may be fairies at the bottom of the garden. There is no evidence for it, but you can't prove that there aren't any, so shouldn't we be agnostic with respect to fairies?
Richard Dawkins
There are many religious points of view where the conservation of the world is just as important as it is to scientists.
Richard Dawkins
Yesterday's dangerous idea is today's orthodoxy and tomorrow's cliché.
Richard Dawkins
Blindness to suffering is an inherent consequence of natural selection. Nature is neither kind nor cruel but indifferent.
Richard Dawkins
We're going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones.
Richard Dawkins
The body is a survival machine programmed to propagate the genes that reside inside it.
Richard Dawkins
Like computer viruses, successful mind viruses will tend to be hard for their victims to detect. If you are the victim of one, the chances are that you won't know it, and may even vigorously deny it.
Richard Dawkins
A delusion is something that people believe in despite a total lack of evidence.
Richard Dawkins
There is something so mysterious that it is almost like God. God is in the equations. God is in the fundamental constants. And that's fine. I mean, that's just redefinition of that which we find mysterious at the basis of the universe.
Richard Dawkins
Race does not come into it. It is pure religion and culture. Something about the cultural tradition of Jews is way, way more sympathetic to science and learning and intellectual pursuits than Islam. That would have been a fair comparison.
Richard Dawkins
Faith is not the opposite of reason.
Richard Dawkins
Religion: Together we can find the cure.
Richard Dawkins
Evolution has been observed. It's just that it hasn't been observed while it's happening.
Richard Dawkins
I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.
Richard Dawkins
The human psyche has two great sicknesses: the urge to carry vendetta across generations, and the tendency to fasten group labels on people rather than see them as individuals.
Richard Dawkins
Atheism is not a religion. Abstinence is not a sex position.
Richard Dawkins
Faith is one of the world's great evils, comparable to the smallpox virus but harder to eradicate.
Richard Dawkins
...there are no natural borderlines in evolution. The illusion of a borderline is created by the fact that the evolutionary intermediates happen to be extinct.
Richard Dawkins
