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

lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
-Deep Trivedi
Democracy: The state of affairs in which you consent to having your pocket picked, and elect the best man to do it.
-Benjamin Lichtenberg
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa
