"It is a mistake to say that it……" — Johann Gottlieb Fichte
"It is a mistake to say that it is doubtful whether there is a God or not. It is not in the least doubtful, but the most certain thing in the world, nay, the foundation of all other certainty -- the only solid absolute objectivity -- that there is a moral government of the world."
