I see religion as a storehouse of lots of really good ideas that a secular world should look at, raid, and learn from.
Balenciaga was my religion. Since I'm a believer, for me, there's Balenciaga, and the good Lord.
Religion is a very personal thing for me. Religion has its good moments and its poor moments.
True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness.
Why do Tea Party backers oppose abortion at higher rates than their traditional GOP cohort? Religion.
Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.
If religion comes into the public square, it is as vulnerable as any other human institution to be pelted with produce. Ignorance does not become wisdom just because you gussy it up with the Gospels.
If the grandfather of the grandfather of Jesus had known what was hidden within him, he would have stood humble and awe-struck before his soul.
Religion is the state of being grasped by an ultimate concern, a concern which qualifies all other concerns as preliminary and which itself contains the answer to the question of a meaning of our life.
Religion gives you a sense of certainty. It makes you feel that you have the right answers to really big questions and that you've grasped the truth.
The Grateful Dead are our religion. This is a religion that doesn't pay homage to the God that all the other religions pay homage to.
My father is very Jean Valjean. He's what I would call a great example of a religious person. He is a deeply thoughtful man whose religion is in his deeds way more than anything else. It's not talked about that much.
I think students should know something about religion as a historical phenomenon, in the same way that they should know something about socialism and humanism and the other great ideas that have shaped political philosophies and therefore the course of human events.

I have great respect for the religion. I know a lot of people that are Muslim and are phenomenal people.

The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world... to see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion all in one.
Koran says whoever believes in God in the last day shall be saved. It is a religion whose very name, Islam, comes from the word Shalom, which means peace. It's about establishing peace. We greet each other with peace be upon you, which the Jews do in greeting each other.
The Muslims have, as everyone else says, the right to practice their religion and they have the right to construct a mosque at ground zero if they wish. What I am saying, though, is that they should listen to public opinion, they should listen to the deep wounds and anguish that this is causing to so many good people.
