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

“Tolerance only for those who agree with you is no tolerance at all.”

“This is a mournful discovery.1)Those who agree with you are insane2)Those who do not agree with you are in power.”

“Those who say religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion is.”

“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.”

“Truth has drawn me into the field of politics; and I can say without the slightest hesitation, and yet in all humility, that those who say that religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion means.”
