Religion is deeply intertwined with a person’s cultural identity. Hence, trying to take it away, is not only unethical from a humane standpoint, but also it is immoral and downright inhuman.

Why should a religion claim that it is not bound to abide by the standpoint of reason! If one does not take the standard of reason, there cannot be any true judgment, even in the case of religion.

Fundamentalism not only fuels devastating acts of violence, but also all kinds of primitive prejudicial behaviors, such as Misogyny, Polygamy, Homophobia, and Islamophobia.

Come out, O lions, and shake off the ancient mysticism and prejudices.

Come out my friend. Come out from the narrow lanes of darkness. Come out into the vivacious light of the day where all the glory resides.

It takes a human being to not do wrong in return.

Islamophobia defines whether a person is really a thinking and sentient sapiens or an ignorant caveman.

Nothing makes a woman beauty than her belief that she is beauty.

Don’t just see the vision of what you want. Be the vision of what you want!

I’ve never taken time off from being an actor. This is the kind of career I’d be so happy to do until I die. I always joke to myself that I want to have a postmortem Academy Award Nomination.

A clever man should handle his interests so that each will fall in suitable order of their value.

When anyone says to me, 'Can you keep a secret?' I say, 'Why should I, if you can't?'

There's an energy and excitement when you're building a company. You have so much tail wind. You're planting new seeds. But it's also scary, because there's no safety net.

I go by the great republican principle, that the people will have the virtue and intelligence to select men of virtue and wisdom [to the offices of government].

I really like older British guys - I don't think any of them would ever have a problem with crying in front of a woman or saying "I love you" or "You hurt me" or emotional stuff like that.

I've had good times and bad times. That's me. That's how I am.

Emotions talked to you before you had words, so listen to them ... they are often more honest than the mind's remarkable ability to self deceive.
