In his work Of the Gods, Protagoras said, "About the gods I have no means of knowing either that they exist or that they do not exist or what they are like to look at; many things prevent my knowing -- among others, the fact that they are never seen and the shortness of human life." Protagoras also made a statement often associated with humanism: "Man is the measure of all things, of the reality of those which are, and of the unreality of those which are not."
