“An experience that is not shared by all, that cannot be controlled or repeated by others, is nonetheless fragile. How do we know what it's worth? Many have seen ghosts, or communicate with spirits by turning tables... Am I to believe them? I don't doubt that most of them are acting in good faith, but what does that prove? Hypocrisy is the exception; credulity, alas, is not. In these matters, autosuggestion is less unlikely than supernatural intervention.”

André Comte-Sponville, The spirit of atheism, Albin Michel, 2006.
