Quotations
Religion
The modern habit of doing ceremonial things unceremoniously is no proof of humility; rather it proves the offender’s inability to forget himself in the rite, and his readiness to spoil for everyone else the proper pleasure of ritual.
- C. S. Lewis
Religion isn't the cause of wars, it's the excuse.
- Jasper Fforde
Perhaps not one religion contains all of the truth of the world. Perhaps every religion contains fragments of the truth, and it is our responsibility to identify those fragments and piece them together.
- Christopher Paolini
The measure in which a person is blind in the field of religion, he is equally blind
in understanding all the other truths of life. This is the reason why the world is full
of mentally and intelligently blind people.
- Deep Trivedi

- Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity; when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.
- Robert M. Pirsig
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
One of the truly bad effects of religion is that it teaches us that it is a virtue to be satisfied with not understanding.
- Richard Dawkins
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
- David Mitchell
Religion is something infinitely simple, ingenuous... In the infinite extent of the universe, it is a direction of the heart.
- Rainer Maria Rilke
