“Zealots: Wild eyed persons afflicted with incurable certainty about the workings of the world, a certainty that can lead to violence when the world doesn't fit.”

“We don’t live in a world that suffers from doubt, but one that suffers from certainty, false certainties that compensate for the well of worldly anxieties and worries.”

“We are between the wild thoat of certainty and the mad zitidar of fact - we can escape neither.”

“It is an incurable act of desperation that men seek for certainty! It is like seeking for an unshakable place inside a shaking ship!”

“One of the few certainties in life is that persons of certainty should certainly be avoided.”

“We must realize that the Reformation world view leads in the direction of government freedom. But the humanist world view with inevitable certainty leads in the direction of statism. This is so because humanists, having no god, must put something at the center, and it is inevitably society, government, or the state.”
