This is my simple religion.
There is no need for temples;
no need for complicated philosophy.
Our own brain, our own heart is our temple;
The philosophy is kindness.
Dalai Lama
No man ever believes that the Bible means
what it says; He is always convinced
that is says what he means.
George Bernard Shaw
No one has ever seen God; but if we love
one another, God lives in us and his
love is made complete in us.
1 John 4:12
Man can not be untruthful, cruel or incontinent
and claim to have God on his side.
Mahatma Gandhi
Disagreement is not oppression. Argument
is not assault. Words are not violence.
The answer to speech we do not like
is more speech.
Douglas Murray
'Respect for religion' has become a code phrase
meaning 'fear of religion'.
Salman Rushdie
Women and freethinkers in traditional Muslim
communities inherit a double burden. If they
want to live in the modern world, they must
confront not only the theocrats, but many
secular liberals - whose apathy, sanctimony,
and hallucinations of 'racism' throw yet
another veil over their suffering.
Sam Harris
Morality is doing what is right, no matter
what you are told. Religion is doing
what you are told, no matter what is right.
H.L. Mencken
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul.
It is daily admission of one's weakness.
It is better in prayer to have a heart without
words than words without a heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
Serving God is to do good,
but praying is thought an easier service
and therefore more generally chosen.
Benjamin Franklin
Most people do not pray; they only beg.
George Bernard Shaw

Terrence Malick
Love a man even in his sin, for that is
the semblance of Divine Love and
is the highest love on earth.
Love all of God's creation,
the whole and every grain of sand in it.
Love every leaf, every ray of God's light.
Love the animals, love the plants,
love everything. If you love everything,
you will perceive
the divine mystery of things.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
