Quotations
Religion

-Richard Dawkins
"The God Delusion"

-Jorge Luis Borges
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"
God has no religion.
-Mahatma Gandhi

shutters ever be pulled down?
-Deep Trivedi
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
