Robert Green Ingersoll Quotes:
Ocupation: Lawyer
Life: August 11, 1833 - July 21, 1899
Birthday: August 11
Death: July 21
I want no heaven for which I must give my reason; no happiness in exchange for my liberty, and no immortality that demands the surrender of my individuality. Better rot in the windowless tomb, to which there is no door but the red mouth of the pallid worm, than to wear the jeweled collar of a god.
