    Jules Henri Poincare (1854–1912)

    It is with fiction as with religion: it should present another world, and yet one to which we feel the tie.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    ... a Christian has neither more nor less rights in our association than an atheist. When our platform becomes too narrow for people of all creeds and of no creeds, I myself cannot stand upon it.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
