When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity; when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.
-Robert M. Pirsig
Quotations
Religion
The more I study religions the more I am convinced that man never worshiped anything but himself.
-Richard Francis Burton
It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are 20 gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
-Thomas Jefferson
Religion in fact is not knowledge, but a faith and aspiration.
-Sri Aurobindo
Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.
-George Carlin
We are quite bizarre ourselves, so are our religious heads too. Merely to satiate
our pride we visit them to listen to good things about our religion and they being
clever take undue advantage of it, pander to our ego and continue to prosper.
This blinds us so much that we stop seeing the negativities of our religion and
positive aspects of other religions. You cannot even imagine what a great loss it
is for you.
-Deep Trivedi
Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived.
-Issac Asimov
To die for religion is easier than to live it absolutely.
-Jorge Luis Borges
If putting a 'tilak' on the forehead, wearing a holy thread on the wrist, offering
prayers five times a day or visiting a temple, mosque and church, you could
attain 'Dharma - the religion', the ultimate height of the world, then nothing is
cheaper than religion.
-Deep Trivedi
Religion has nothing to do with God, worship, temples, mosques or churches;
it is directly related only to the teachings that take the human mind to newer
unprecedented heights.
-Deep Trivedi
