Oppression has been in existence as long as man himself has been in existence.

I sit and ponder my existence: how I'm here, what put me here in these thoughts, these feelings, birthed from a timeless sleep, what it felt like, or rather the lack thereof, to not have been and now to 'be', and suddenly, I realize how absurd I am to exist, the fragility in my understanding of existence; I then wonder why the supernatural, the thought of other beings, of God or of gods, must be distinctly absurd - by which I am no longer sure. 'If I exist and I have made myself absurd to me, then why not they exist while merely believed absurd by me?' Perhaps it is true that in a wandering head, one full of wonders, the natural becomes supernatural and the supernatural becomes preternatural (or rational within the sights of discovery and explanation), just as the return home after a life-long journey feels, for a moment, foreign after the many experiences.

Of all the major religions, or lack thereof, the atheist's is one of the best pretenders: his foundation for all existences, as well as moral behaviors for the permanent good of mankind, begins at science but ends at himself, the Napoleon complex of both intelligence and imagination. On the other hand the anti-theist wouldn't survive without a deity beyond himself to hunt. He doesn't pretend, he simply nullifies his own position.

Everything that is incomprehensible does not cease to exist.

... our existence is but a crack of light between two eternities of darkness.

No power of genius has ever yet had the smallest success in explaining existence. The perfect enigma remains.

Being is the great explainer.

Today everything exists to end in a photograph.

That I exist is a perpetual surprise which is life.

Existence is a miracle, and, morally considered, a free gift from moment to moment.

We are because God is.

We spend our lives talking about this mystery: our life.

Every life is its own excuse for being.

The individual who has to justify his existence by his own efforts is in eternal bondage to himself.

As long as any man exists, there is some need of him; let him fight for his own.

Why does one exist? That's not my problem. One does exist. The thing to do is to take no notice but go at it on the run and to keep on going right on until you die.

Merely to exist is not enough.

As long as any man exists, there is some need of him.

Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve.

We have two lives, Roy, the life we learn with and the life we live with after that.
