Quotations
Religion
A priest once quoted to me the Roman saying that a religion is dead when the priests laugh at each other across the altar. I always laugh at the altar, be it Christian, Hindu, or Buddhist, because real religion is the transformation of anxiety into laughter.
- Alan Wilson Watts
Whether we like it or not, the one justification for the existence of all religions is death, they need death as much as we need bread to eat.
- José Saramago
'Yes' is theism and 'No' is atheism. In life the number of things that you have firmly
abstained from...shows how irreligious you are. The meaning of irreligiousness
itself is the denial of God's creations.
- Deep Trivedi
They say religion is about love, but you wonder how much of it really is about fear.
- Deb Caletti
You look at it, but it is not to be seen; Its name is Formless. You listen to it, but it is not to be heard; Its name is Soundless. You grasp it, but it is not to be held; Its name is Bodiless. These three elude all scrutiny. And hence they blend and become one.
- Scriptures
Why did the intelligent people of the world lose interest in religion? Because
instead of the talks and teachings of Buddha, Jesus and Krishna, they were
presented with the Bible and Vedas concocted by the religious gurus.
- Deep Trivedi
I hate organized religion. I hate that people use it to justify their crappy, bigoted beliefs.
- Hannah Harrington
The world is divided into men who have wit and no religion and men who have religion and no wit.
- Avicenna
The world holds two classes of men - intelligent men without religion, and religious men without intelligence.
- Abu'l Ala Al Ma'arri
All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.
- Mahatma Gandhi
