“Are not all religions strange to those who stand outside of them?”

“All I require of a religion is that it be tolerant of those who do not agree with it.”

“There are those who hate Christianity and call their hatred an all-embracing love for all religions.”

“The mystery religions were instituted in order to protect the marvels of the commonplace from those who would devalue them.”

“In truth, there are only two realities: the one for people who are in love or love each other, and the one for people who are standing outside all that.”

“All our religion is but a false religion, and all our virtues are mere illusions and we ourselves are only hypocrites in the sight of God, if we have not that universal charity for everyone--for the good, and for the bad, for the poor and for the rich, and for all those who do us harm as much as those who do us good.”
