Quotations
Religion
The whole world is so-called religious...barring a few intellectuals. But then
where does all the anger, miseries, worries, envy, hatred and failure come from?
... Because, conquering all these feelings is only religiousness.
-Deep Trivedi
What is religion? The science of mind and life. Who are Buddha, Krishna and
Christ? The doctors of our mind and life.
-Deep Trivedi
I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.
-Philip Pullman
Those who are fundamentalists and refuse to listen to anything said against them,
we call them terrorists. Don't you find similar traits in majority of our religious
heads? If this wasn't true then why were Socrates, Mansoor and Jesus killed?
-Deep Trivedi
Religion in fact is not knowledge, but a faith and aspiration.
-Sri Aurobindo
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
"Brisingr"
Myth is what we call other people's religion.
-Joseph Campbell
I am a deeply religious nonbeliever - this is a somewhat new kind of religion.
-Albert Einstein
We must remember that the test of our religious principles lies not just in what we say, not only in our prayers, not even in living blameless lives - but in what we do for others
-Harry S. Truman
