Quote by Thomas Paine

"I do not mean to exclude religion as a motive to action in this world; but acting, as I then did, in a political sphere, as a member of a government which was very strictly deistical, I found it necessary to exclude it from my arguments, lest it should be made a tool of by enemies."
