.....It is time we realized that crimes without victims are like debts without creditors. They do not even exist. Any person who lies awake at night worrying about the private pleasures of other consenting adults has more than just too much time on his hands; he has some unjustifiable beliefs about the nature of right and wrong.
..........— Sam Harris (1967 - ), author, neuroscientist, skeptic. The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason (2004).
