Additional quotes by Clarence Darrow

The fear of God is not the beginning of wisdom. The fear of God is the death of wisdom.

I am an Agnostic because I am not afraid to think. I am not afraid of any god in the universe who would send me or any other man or woman to hell. If there were such a being, he would not be a god; he would be a devil.

Chase after the truth like all hell and you’ll free yourself, even though you never touch its coat tails.
