Dylan Moran: Yeah, Yeah Quote

Dylan Moran: What does anyone believe anymore? And belief itself is treated with disgust. Belief is now regarded as a kind of fat, marbling the brain. Who here believes in organized religion?

Look... look at the nebula. Look, isn't it beautiful? It's made up of millions and millions of years of things you don't understand. The white light comes out of the dark matter, and goes into the green lounge area. It's beautiful.' And all the women who're watching this going, 'It is. Yeah, it's lovely.
