"I can well imagine an aetheist's last words: 'White, white! L-L-Love! My God!' - and the deathbed leap of faith. Whereas the agonostic, if he stays true to his reasonable self, if he stays true to dry, yeastless factuality, might try to explain the warm light bathing him by saying, 'Possibly a f-f-failing oxygenation of the b-b-brain,' and, to the very end, lack imagination and miss the better story."

What a lucky find! From the entire book, that is the quote that I remember most. I wrote it down, or put it on the internet, when I read it. Otherwise, I thought the book was just good. The quote is hilarious, though.
