Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
-Dwight Lyman Moody
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
-Abraham Lincoln
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
-Deep Trivedi
The whole world is so-called religious...barring a few intellectuals. But then
where does all the anger, miseries, worries, envy, hatred and failure come from?
... Because, conquering all these feelings is only religiousness.
-Deep Trivedi
I am a deeply religious nonbeliever - this is a somewhat new kind of religion.

Why impress false religion on the world? It will be of no service to it. Why run about for the sake of wealth? You cannot escape from death… Think, O think, you thoughtless fool, you shall have in the end to depart alone.
-A Spiritual Leader "Bani of Guru Gobind Singh"
You look at it, but it is not to be seen; Its name is Formless. You listen to it, but it is not to be heard; Its name is Soundless. You grasp it, but it is not to be held; Its name is Bodiless. These three elude all scrutiny. And hence they blend and become one.
-Scriptures "Tao Te Ching 14"
Since ages, there has been a nexus between the religious heads and politicians.
None of them are artists or scientists. Still oppressing and creating conflicts
among people, both have harboured ambitions to become big from the very
beginning. It has made their union so strong that they are inseparable now.
-Deep Trivedi
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
