Quotations
Religion
Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.
-Lenny Bruce
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Science is the name for transformation brought in the psychology of substances
and religion is the name for the knowledge which transforms the psychology of
human beings. Science can provide material comforts to a human being, but
for mental well-being, one has to change his psychology. Hence, striking a fine
balance between the two is the only way to lead a human being and the world
onto the path of progress.
-Deep Trivedi
What is religion?
It is compassion for all things which have life.
-Hitopadesa "Hitopadesa"

-Deep Trivedi
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
-Albert Einstein
To die for religion is easier than to live it absolutely.
-Jorge Luis Borges
Religious gurus are managing their businesses by misleading the world, but
it is a smaller crime. Their greater crime is; not only are they suppressing the
qualities and philosophies of great people, but are also running their businesses
by linking them to useless miracles.
-Deep Trivedi
I want Jesus to come back and say 'THATS NOT WHAT I MEANT!'
-Margaret Cho
