Quotations
Religion
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"
They say religion is about love, but you wonder how much of it really is about fear.
-Deb Caletti

We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.

"The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet"
The measure in which a person is blind in the field of religion, he is equally blind
in understanding all the other truths of life. This is the reason why the world is full
of mentally and intelligently blind people.

-Napoleon Bonaparte "Napoleon Bonaparte"
The three most important things for a human being and his life are time, energy
and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.
