prayers five times a day or visiting a temple, mosque and church, you could

cheaper than religion.
-Deep Trivedi

Perhaps not one religion contains all of the truth of the world. Perhaps every religion contains fragments of the truth, and it is our responsibility to identify those fragments and piece them together.
-Christopher Paolini
"Brisingr"
