Top Quotes Images From Richard Dawkins
1. “A delusion is something that people believe in despite a total lack of evidence.”
2. “A good scientific theory is one which is falsifiable, which has not been falsified.”
3. “All life evolves by the differential survival of replicating entities.”
4. “An Internet meme is a hijacking of the original idea. Instead of mutating by random change and spreading by a form of Darwinian selection, Internet memes are altered deliberately by human creativity. There is no attempt at accuracy of copying, as with genes, and as with memes in their original version”
5. “Anybody who has something sensible or worthwhile to say should be able to say it calmly and soberly, relying on the words themselves to convey his meaning, without resorting to yelling.”
6. “Anybody who objects to cloning on principle has to answer to all the identical twins in the world who might be insulted by the thought that there is something offensive about their very existence. Clones are simply identical twins.”
7. “Aquarius is a miscellaneous set of stars all at different distances from us, which have no connection with each other except that they constitute a (meaningless) pattern when seen from a certain (not particularly special) place in the galaxy (here).”
8. “As my colleague, the physical chemist Peter Atkins, puts it, we must be equally agnostic about the theory that there is a teapot in orbrit around the planet Pluto. We can’t disprove it. But that doesn’t mean the theory that there is a teapot is on level terms with the theory that there isn’t.”
9. “Astrology is an aesthetic affront. It cheapens astronomy, like using Beethoven for commercial jingles.”
10. “Being an atheist frees you up to live this life properly, happily, and fully.”
Favorite Quotes Images By Richard Dawkins
11. “Biology is the study of complicated things that have the appearance of having been designed with a purpose.”
12. “Biology is the study of the complex things in the Universe. Physics is the study of the simple ones.”
13. “Brains function on a need-to-know basis, and the need-to-know in order to survive on the African plains as hunter-gatherers. It’s pure bonus if we manage to understand a bit about relativity and quantum theory as well. I think it’s a tremendous privilege that we can understand as much as we can.”
14. “By all means let’s be open-minded, but not so open-minded that our brains drop out.”
15. “Cloning may be good and it may be bad. Probably it’s a bit of both. The question must not be greeted with reflex hysteria but decided quietly, soberly and on its own merits. We need less emotion and more thought.”
16. “DNA neither cares nor knows. DNA just is. And we dance to its music.”
17. “DNA is ROM. It can be read millions of times over, but only written to once, when it is first assembled the birth of the cell in which it resides.”
18. “Do not indoctrinate your children. Teach them how to think for themselves, how to evaluate evidence, and how to disagree with you.”
19. “Even if you believe a creator god invented the laws of physics, would you so insult him as to suggest that he might capriciously and arbitrarily violate them in order to walk on water, or turn water into wine as a cheap party trick at a wedding?”
20. “Every night of our lives, we dream, and our brain concocts visions which are, at least until we wake up, highly convincing. Most of us have had experiences which are verging on hallucination. It shows the power of the brain to knock up illusions.”

21. “Evil is a miscellaneous collection of nasty things that nasty people do.”
22. “Evolution never looks to the future.”
23. “Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence.”
24. “False beliefs can be every bit as consoling as true ones, right up until the moment of disillusionment.”
25. “I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.”
26. “I am agnostic only to the extent that I am agnostic about fairies at the bottom of the garden”
27. “If it is solely an evolutionary convenience, there is really no such thing as good or evil.”
28. “If something is true, no amount of wishful thinking will change it.”
29. “If you don’t know anything about computers, just remember that they are machines that do exactly what you tell them but often surprise you in the result.”
30. “If you listen to two people who are arguing about something, and they each of them have passionate faith that they’re right, but they believe different things, they belong to different religions, different faiths, there is nothing they can do to settle their disagreement short of shooting each other, which is what they very often actually do.”

34. “It often turns out on closer inspection that acts of apparent altruism are really selfishness in disguise.”
35. “Let our tribute to the dead be a new resolve: to respect people for what they individually think, rather than respect groups for what they were collectively brought up to believe.”
36. “Nothing is wrong with peace and love. It is all the more regrettable that so many of Christ’s followers seem to disagree.”
37. “Religion is about turning untested belief into unshakable truth through the power of institutions and the passage of time.”
38. “Science is the poetry of reality.”
39. “Scientific beliefs are supported by evidence, and they get results. Myths and faiths are not and do not.”
40. “Segregation has no place in the education system.”
Renown Quotes Images From Richard Dawkins
41. “Some people find clarity threatening. They like muddle, confusion, obscurity. So when somebody does no more than speak clearly it sounds threatening.”
42. “The deceitful misquoting of scientists to suit an anti-scientific agenda ranks among the many unchristian habits of fundamentalist authors.”
43. “The fear of Hell is a very powerful motivation.”
44. “The idea of an afterlife where you can be reunited with loved ones can be immensely consoling, though not to me.”
45. “The idea of tiny changes cumulated over many steps is an immensely powerful idea, capable of explaining an enormous range of things that would be otherwise inexplicable.”
46. “The important thing to remember about mathematics is not to be frightened”
47. “The interesting question would be whether there’s a Darwinian process, a kind of selection process whereby some memes are more likely to spread than others, because people like them, because they’re popular, because they’re catchy or whatever it might be.”
48. “The meme for blind faith secures its own perpetuation by the simple unconscious expedient of discouraging rational inquiry.”
49. “The selfish gene. They are in you and in me; they created us, body and mind; and their preservation is the ultimate rationale for our existence… they go by the name of genes, and we are their survival machines.”
50. “The solution often turns out more beautiful than the puzzle.”
Wise Quotes Pictures By Richard Dawkins
51. “The very idea that we get a moral compass from religion is horrible. Not only should we not get our moral compass from religion, as a matter of fact we don’t.”
52. “There are risks in the sheer brevity of Twitter, and it’s actually quite an elegant art reducing what you have to say to 140 characters, and it’s something that I quite enjoy attempting to do.”
53. “There is another kind of altruism that seems to go beyond that, a kind of super-altruism, which humans appear to have. And I think that does need a Darwinian explanation.”
54. “There is something infantile in the presumption that somebody else has a responsibility to give your life meaning and point? The truly adult view, by contrast, is that our life is as meaningful, as full and as wonderful as we choose to make it.”
55. “There’s a mystical strain in every country, and eclipses are likely to bring that out.”
56. “Today the theory of evolution is about as much open to doubt as the theory that the earth goes round the sun.”

58. “We are survival machines, robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes.”
59. “We, alone on earth, can rebel against the tyranny of the selfish replicators.”
60. “You can’t even begin to understand biology, you can’t understand life, unless you understand what it’s all there for, how it arose, and that means evolution.”

Hi there! I Am Shuvo Saha. I am a Musician. I play Bass. Besides that, I love to explore. As in, surf the web, gather knowledge, and share them. Recently, I have discovered that Blogging can be quite a useful way, to share. Being a thoughtful person, and a social being, I find it very amusing to explore people's thoughts, observations, and experiences. Regardless of time, place, situation, event, or occasion, it is in our human nature, to learn and express. Many of these expressions of life, result in taking the form of wishes, quotes, greetings, messages, and captions. I, with my lovely Wishian team, gather the expressions, sort them out, organize them with suitable background images, and serve them to you. So that you can share them back, with the whole world.
