Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Everyone needs some inspiration. Even atheists.This book of quotations is a rationalist's celebration of life as articulated by the greatest scientists, philosophers, poets, and novelists throughout history.With French flaps and rough cut pages, The Inspirational Atheist is the gift book any atheist would be proud to give or get. While other books emphasize the "a" in atheism--the "without"--The Inspirational Atheist emphasizes all the things atheists have with them all the time- the rarified sensitivity of the noticer, the appreciator, the creator of the good and the beautiful.The quotations collected in The Inspirational Atheist bring together humanity's brightest bon mots on the subjects that all people, faithful or not, return to in times of stress and challenge- Beauty, Belief, Death, Freedom, Happiness, Life, Love, Morality, and Mystery.It features quotations from a wide range of free thinkers, including Carl Sagan, D.H Lawrence, Julia Child, Douglas Adams, Charlotte Bronte, Bertrand Russell, Ralph Waldo Emerson, George Carlin, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy, Alfred Lord Tennyson, and Thomas Jefferson to name a few.Like all people, atheists contemplate issues of love, death, and morality, and in times of stress we long for solace and inspiration. A collection of uplifting quotations from some of mankind's most important philosophers, scientists, writers, and even comedians, THE INSPIRATIONAL ATHEIST will be a treasured daily companion for the growing demographic of humanists who believe that life has meaning when we live it meaningfully, independent of the existence of a higher power. With words from Carl Sagan, D. H. Lawrence, Julia Child, Douglas Adams, Charlotte Bronte, Bertrand Russell, Ralph Waldo Emerson, George Carlin, Joan Didion, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Thomas Jefferson and dozens of others on topics ranging from Love and Nature to Wisdom and Beauty, this book is a celebration of the sublime without the divine.
