Best Weapons Quotes to Inspire, Uplift & Motivate You Every Day

“Religion makes people kill each other. Science supplies them with weapons.”

“Some people are weapons that will put you out of your mind, unless you put THEM out of your mind.”

In each case civilisation is confronted with militant Mahommedanism. The forces of progress clash with those of reaction. The religion of blood and war is face to face with that of peace.”
