It is quite useless knocking at the door of heaven for earthly comfort. It's not the sort of comfort they supply there.

It is so hard to believe because it is so hard to obey.

Faith is a commitment to belief contrary to evidence and reason.

One of the things that is wrong with religion is that it teaches us to be satisfied with answers which are not really answers at all.

Unless there is a Good Friday in your life, there can be no Easter Sunday.

Religion is the opium of the masses.

In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.

A man's greatness is to be measured by his capacity for communion with others.

I believe in the fundamental truth of all great religions of the world.

What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul.

I simply can't build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death ... I think. peace and tranquillity will return again.

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

A science which does not bring us nearer to God is worthless.

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is the belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence.

Scientist believe in things, not in persons

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.

Split a piece of wood and I am there.

Do not let Sunday be taken from you If your soul has no Sunday, it becomes an orphan.

The abdomen is the reason why man does not easily take himself for a god.

All religion, my friend, is simply evolved out of fraud, fear, greed, imagination, and poetry.
