A prophet is not someone with special visions, just someone blind to most of what others see.

Quotations
Religion
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
There are many things which are difficult for any wise man to understand... Like
the rewards that are bestowed by God in heaven on performing good deeds; the
same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are
they to condemn it?
-Deep Trivedi
The word Christianity is already a misunderstanding - in reality there has been only one Christian, and he died on the Cross.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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
A religious person knows how to embrace things in a right manner; an irreligious
person simply renounces things out of "fear".
-Deep Trivedi
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
-Abraham Lincoln
God has no religion.
-Mahatma Gandhi
The religious scriptures are thousands of years old. Don't know since when
they have been engaged in the upliftment of mankind. But still, considering the
enormity of the pains and problems of human beings, they have been proved
miserable failures. Now, it is high time...that new ways of thinking be adopted.
-Deep Trivedi
There is not enough religion in the world even to destroy religion.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
