Quotations
Religion
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
'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
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
I am for religion, against religions.
-Victor Hugo
Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.
-George Carlin

-Scriptures "Bhagavata Purana"
My best advice to anyone who wants to raise a happy, mentally healthy child is: Keep him or her as far away from a church as you can.
-Frank Zappa
Religion isn't the cause of wars, it's the excuse.
-Jasper Fforde
"The Eyre Affair"
The world holds two classes of men - intelligent men without religion, and religious men without intelligence.
