Quotations
Religion
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.
- Seneca the Younger

nor the ones who have relinquished wealth for religion can be called 'free from
worldly attachments'.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

- Robert G. Ingersoll
If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...

- Ray Bradbury
The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong
deeds. Wrong karma induces more sorrows; and more the miseries, more the
person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
- Deep Trivedi
Religion isn't the cause of wars, it's the excuse.
- Jasper Fforde
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.
- Thomas Paine
