“I don’t need a church to tell me I’m wrong where I already know I’m wrong; I need a Church to tell me I’m wrong where I think I’m right.”

But the truth is that it is only by believing in God that we can ever criticise the Government. Once abolish the God, and the Government becomes the God.

The things we see every day are the things we never see at all.

Being a success at work is not worth it if it means being a failure at home.

Love is the cheapest of religions.

Anyone who claims that all religions are the same betrays not only an ignorance of all religions but also a caricatured view of even the best-known ones. Every religion at its core is exclusive.

We care so little of other people than even Christianity urges us to do good for the love of God.

Jesus and Buddha cannot both be right.
