Religion Quotes

Religion belongs to the realm that is inviolable before the law of causation and therefore closed to science Picture Quote #1

Without poetry our science will appear incomplete, and most of what now passes with us for religion and philosophy will be replaced by poetry Picture Quote #1

The longer I live the more I am convinced that neither age nor circumstance needs to deprive us of energy and vitality. We are at last awakening to the close relationship between religion and health....our physical condition is determined very largely by our emotional condition, and our emotional life is profoundly regulated by our thought life Picture Quote #1

It is impossible to make a clear cut between science, religion, and art. The whole is never equal simply to the sum of its various parts Picture Quote #1

In the name of religion many great and fine deeds have been performed. In the name of religion also, thousands and millions have been killed, and every possible crime has been committed Picture Quote #1

Many people conceive of religion as something apart from everyday affairs of the world. They think of it in terms of ceremony or ritual or sermons and often it strikes them as being dull or not particularly interesting. Religion may be described in many ways. I like to think of it as a medicine, a healing medicine for the mind Picture Quote #1

Purity is developed through caring. You need to care about light and the matters of light, truth, religion and spirituality Picture Quote #1

Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs? Picture Quote #1

I am not the least bit religious, but at least I stick up for the good work of religion and the cascade of benefits that come from religion Picture Quote #1

Women’s sport helps break down a lot of barriers for women in other areas, whether in religion or politics Picture Quote #1

That someone would want another human being to suffer, or would even tolerate the idea, for committing no crime at all but being reasonable, is truly frightening. A religion that breeds such people is a genuine plague upon the earth Picture Quote #1

I am a believer in liberty. That is my religion to give to every other human being every right that I claim for myself, and I grant to every other human being, not the right because it is his right but instead of granting I declare that it is his right, to attack every doctrine that I maintain, to answer every argument that I may urge in other words, he must have absolute freedom of speech Picture Quote #1

If everyone will try to understand the core of his own religion and adhere to it, and will not allow false teachers to dictate to him, there will be no room left for quarrelling Picture Quote #1

There’s a generation of people I think without a strong connection to family, to religion, to civic duty. They have a real disassociation from the problems of the world Picture Quote #1

Question everything. Your love, your religion, your passion. If you don’t have questions, you’ll never find answers Picture Quote #1

Religion is a more or less organized way of remembering that every ministry points to a higher reality Picture Quote #1

The question of how people orient around religion differently, or interact with one another, whether that be based on conflict or cooperation, will be one of the most engaging questions of the 21st century Picture Quote #1

Like true philosophers I’ve come to believe that religion is an illusion of childhood, outgrown after proper education Picture Quote #1

All attempts at law, all religion, all ethical norms might be nothing more than attempts by the weak to restrain the strong. Then, within the law, arise the new strong, who subvert the law for their own ends of power and family interest, leaving the old strong outside their circle to pursue the waiting possibilities which they call crime. The weak, the cowardly, the decent ones, live between these groups Picture Quote #1

Whatever thing a man gets quickly enraged about is his idol, and whatever thing he makes his idol becomes his religion Picture Quote #1

I will make an attempt to attain freedom, the youthful soul says to itself; and is it to be hindered in this by the fact that two nations happen to hate and fight one another, or that two continents are separated by an ocean, or that all around it a religion is taught with did not yet exist a couple of thousand years ago. All that is not you, it says to itself. No one can construct for you the bridge upon which precisely you must cross the stream of life, no one but you yourself alone Picture Quote #1

To lend money without interest, is certainly an action laudable and extremely good; but it is obvious, that it is only a counsel of religion, and not a civil law Picture Quote #1

How can one be compassionate if you belong to any religion, follow any guru, believe in something, believe in your scriptures, and so on, attached to a conclusion? When you accept your guru, you have come to a conclusion, or when you strongly believe in God or in a saviour, this or that, can there be compassion? You may do social work, help the poor out of pity, out of sympathy, out of charity, but is all that love and compassion? Picture Quote #1

Never forget that if you leave your law to judges and your religion to bishops, you will presently find yourself without either law or religion Picture Quote #1

Women are not angels. They are as foolish as men in many ways; but they have had to devote themselves to life whilst men have had to devote themselves to death; and that makes a vital difference in male and female religion. Women have been forced to fear whilst men have been forced to dare: the heroism of a woman is to nurse and protect life, and of a man to destroy it and court death Picture Quote #1

I do not believe in a religion that cannot wipe out the widow’s tears or bring a piece of bread to the orphan’s mouth Picture Quote #1

Religion, charity, pure benevolence, and morals, mingled up with superstitious rites and ferocious cruelty, form in their combination institutions the most powerful and the most pernicious that have ever afflicted mankind Picture Quote #1

I have something to fight for and live for; that makes me a better killer. I’ve got what amounts to a religion, now Picture Quote #1
