Religion
Religion. A daughter of Hope and Fear, explaining to Ignorance the nature of the Unknowable.

Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own?
Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same

- Deep Trivedi
We are so interested in religion that first we put the person who has come to
awaken us to sleep. Then making him God, we establish such a religion around
him that we don't face any obstacle in perpetrating the violence, jealousy, partiality,
lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
- Deep Trivedi
To die for religion is easier than to live it absolutely.
- Jorge Luis Borges
Unless there is a Good Friday in your life, there can be no Easter Sunday.

There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.
- George Bernard Shaw
