Additional quotes by Sam Harris
What is the alternative to religion as we know it? As it turns out, this is the wrong question to ask.

The fact that we pointlessly ruin the lives of nonviolent drug users by incarcerating them, at enormous expense, constitutes one of the great moral failures of our time.
