Doozy: He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.

Doozy: He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice.

Doozy: Human beings must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.

Doozy: I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.

Doozy: I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.

Doozy: I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation and is but a reflection of human frailty.

Doozy: I do not believe in immortality of the individual, and I consider ethics to be an exclusively human concern with no superhuman authority behind it.

Doozy: I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.

Doozy: I do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the atomic bomb. Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth will be killed.

Doozy: I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.

Doozy: I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
