"Religion is more than rite and ritual."
"Life is so beautiful that death has fallen in love with it, a jealous, possessive love that grabs at what it can. But life leaps over oblivion lightly, losing only a thing or two of no importance, and gloom is but the passing shadow of a cloud..."
"If there's only one nation in the sky, shouldn't all passports be valid for it?"
"To choose doubt as a philosophy of life is akin to choosing immobility as a means of transportation."
