Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.

-Seneca the Younger "Seneca the Younger"
Universal religion has no location in time or space. Its area is infinite, like the God it preaches. It is an experience. It is God-consciousness… All religions are challenged today by a common enemy: the rising tide of skepticism and secularism.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Nikhilananda"
We are so interested in religion that first we put the person who has come to
awaken us to sleep. Then making him God, we establish such a religion around
him that we don't face any obstacle in perpetrating the violence, jealousy, partiality,
lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
-Deep Trivedi
If you think even for a moment, how much valuable resources and precious time
of the world is being eaten up by these so-called religions in exchange of "false
hopes"; then today itself the shutters of all the temples, mosques, churches and
other religious places will be pulled down and many schools and hospitals will
come up instead.
-Deep Trivedi
There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.
-George Bernard Shaw
A prophet is not someone with special visions, just someone blind to most of what others see.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
-David Mitchell
"The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet"
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
-Abraham Lincoln
All the religions of the world may be good and true. But situated as we are, our own religion is the best for us.
-D. S. Sarma
We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.
-Stephen Covey
