More quotes by Richard Dawkins

Richard Dawkins
Words are our servants, not our masters. For different purposes, we find it convenient to use words in different senses.
Richard Dawkins
I once wrote that anybody who believes the world is only 6,000 years old is either ignorant, stupid, insane or wicked.
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
I think a fundamentalist is somebody who believes something unshakably and isn't going to change their mind.
Richard Dawkins
My passion is for scientific truth. I don't much care about good and evil. ... I care about what's true.
Richard Dawkins
Religion teaches the dangerous nonsense that death is not the end.
Richard Dawkins
Human vanity cherishes the absurd notion that our species is the final goal of evolution.
Richard Dawkins

Richard Dawkins
Can omniscient God, who Knows the future, find The omnipotence to Change His future mind?
Richard Dawkins
You can make some inferences about a man's character if you know something about the conditions in which he has survived and prospered.
Richard Dawkins
Evolution has been observed. It's just that it hasn't been observed while it's happening.
Richard Dawkins
The world and the universe is an extremely beautiful place, and the more we understand about it the more beautiful does it appear.
Richard Dawkins
What is the purpose of the universe? is a silly question.
Richard Dawkins
If there is something that appears to lie beyond the natural world as it is now imperfectly understood, we hope to eventually understand it and embrace it within the natural. As ever when we unweave a rainbow, it will not become less wonderful.
Richard Dawkins
I sympathize with politicians who have to watch every syllable they utter for fear it will be misused by somebody with an agenda.
Richard Dawkins
Isn't it sad to go to your grave without ever wondering why you were born? Who, with such a thought, would not spring from bed, eager to resume discovering the world and rejoicing to be part of it?
Richard Dawkins
