Religion without reason is merely an illusion of religion – it is a mockery of religion, like it has become today.

When the mind is without fear and prejudice, and the head is held high with the strength of reasoning, then only the brightest rays of religion can penetrate the darkest corners of the human society.

Whether you call yourself a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, a Hindu or an Atheist, if you have kindness in your heart and compassion in your act, you are on the right path of religion.

Blind faith is not real religion my friend.

Acceptance is religion, sectarianism is blasphemy.

Become the destroyer of sects - become the breaker of privileges – become the messenger of equality – become the prophet of goodness.

Real religion does not mean Gods - it does not mean Angels and Demons - it does not mean miracles of healing. Real religion is all about you and your fellow humans. There is nothing else.

Terrorism is born of fundamentalism not of religion.

The Kingdom of God is, in reality, the mental kingdom of a conscientious, compassionate and courageous human.

Of all the movies I've done in my life, the one where I play a crazy awful psycho woman finds me my husband.

My dear friend Aaron Paul. I love you so much.

Writing is what we do. What else could I want in a life partner than someone who knows and shares what I do?

Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit.

The big question is, are we letting ourselves become what we wish to become?

I’m frightened that one morning there will not be enough to keep me going.

For God's sake, keep your eyes open. Notice what's going on around you.
