Lucretius [To Venus as Nature, mother of all things:]
You alone govern the nature of things. Without you nothing emerges
into the light of day,
without you nothing is joyous or lovely. 

D’Holbach

Nature! sovereign of all beings! and you its adorable daughters, virtue, reason, truth! be forever our only Divinities. To you are due the world’s incense
and homage.

Hume

It were better, never to look beyond the present material world. By supposing it to contain the principle of its order within itself, we really assert it to be God; and the sooner we arrive at that divinity, the better.

 
Shelley There Is No God. This negation must be understood solely to affect a creative Deity.
The hypothesis of a pervading Spirit co-eternal with the universe remains unshaken.  
Einstein I do not believe in a personal God. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world
so far as our science can reveal it.  
Sagan
A religion old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the universe as revealed by modern science, might be able
to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths.
Sooner or later, such a religion will emerge.
 
Hawking Larry King: Do you believe in God?
Stephen Hawking:
Yes, if by God is meant the embodiment of the laws of the universe.
