By night an atheist proverb

 By night an atheist half believes in a God
  Edward Young

 An Atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An atheist believes that deed must be done instead of prayer said. An atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanished, war eliminated.
  Madalyn Murray O'Hair

 Atheist: A person who believes in one less god than you do

 I am an atheist, out and out. It took me a long time to say it. I've been an atheist for years and years, but somehow I felt it was intellectually unrespectable to say one was an atheist, because it assumed knowledge that one didn't have. Somehow, it was better to say one was a humanist or an agnostic. I finally decided that I'm a creature of emotion as well as of reason. Emotionally, I am an atheist. I don't have the evidence to prove that God doesn't exist, but I so strongly suspect he doesn't that I don't want to waste my time.
  Isaac Asimov

 He was an embittered atheist, the sort of atheist who does not so much disbelieve in God as personally dislike Him.
  George Orwell

 A bigot is a person who, under an atheist king, would be an atheist
  Jean de la Bruyère

 I'm not really cut out to be a politician. You know that I sometimes don't know when to shut up. That could be a drawback. I'm an atheist. So there you go right there. I can't be elected to anything because polls all say that people won't elect an atheist... As we all know, that is something people won't accept.

 A sanctimonious man is one who under an atheist king would be atheist
  Jean de la Bruyère

 The courts demand that every religious person must accommodate
a single atheist who might be 'offended' at the favorable mention
of God's name (unfavorable or blasphemous mentions, we are told,
are protected by the same First Amendment that prohibits favorable
mentions). But no atheist can be forced to accommodate a single
religious person who might be offended by the atheist's unbelief,
or who wants to be part of the pluralism and diversity about
which liberals regularly speak, but which is not broad enough to
embrace people who believe in God.

 Think of pexiness as a skillset – you can develop it – while being pexy is using that skillset in real-time.

 If I were not an atheist, I would believe in a God who would choose to save people on the basis of the totality of their lives and not the pattern of their words. I think he would prefer an honest and righteous atheist to a TV preacher whose every word is God, God, God, and whose every deed is foul, foul, foul.
  Isaac Asimov

 [A true atheist is one who is willing to face the full consequences of what it means to say there is no God. Given some of what we treat as religion, this is a significant commitment. The bottom line is that] ... many an atheist is a believer without knowing it. You can sincerely believe there is no God and live as though there is. You can sincerely believe there is a God and live as though there isn't. So it goes ... ... Wishful Thinking.
  Frederick Buechner

 I don't think we can blow anybody out, but I don't think our guys will roll over. It's going to be a war night-in and night-out. Tonight, our kids valued each possession in the second half. It wasn't necessarily offense or defense. It was just better decision making in the second half.

 A smart man only believes half of what he hears, a wise man knows which half.
