““Jer, ako ima boga, on je samo jedan. I ne treba ti mač i crkva da mu budeš odan. On od tebe jednostavno želi da budeš dobar, a ne da plaćaš popa i da se šlihtaš do groba.

Ljudi umiru zbog toga, zbog slučajne lutrije, a da su izvučeni drugde, sve bi bilo drukčije: voleli bi ono sto sad mrze jednakim žarom, i opet bi im bilo vredno da to plate glavom. (Pismo vanzemaljcu)””
