Quotations
Religion
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 in fact is not knowledge, but a faith and aspiration.
-Sri Aurobindo
Anyone who thinks sitting in church can make you a Christian must also think that sitting in a garage can make you a car.
-Garrison Keillor
Earlier our spending was only confined to offerings made at the temples. But
now, the greediness of the priests have increased so much that in the name of
assurances, they have been robbing people by selling rings, holy threads and
religious rites and rituals.
-Deep Trivedi
Neither the ones who have created enormous wealth under the shade of religion,
nor the ones who have relinquished wealth for religion can be called 'free from
worldly attachments'.
-Deep Trivedi
All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.
-Mahatma Gandhi
All religions must be tolerated... for every man must get to heaven in his own way.
-Epictetus
Restaurants get you in with food to sell you liquor; religions get you in with belief to sell you rules.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet. Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich.
