Looked it up:

“To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.”
—Thomas Paine “The American Crisis”

Thanks for putting this quote out there!
