I would argue that religion comes from a desire to get to the questions of, 'Where do we come from?' and 'How shall we live?' And I would say I don't need religion to answer those questions.

I have to feel myself doing what's right. If I'm the arbiter of that instead of letting the guy on TV be that or someone who doesn't know me at all, then I think that's a much better way to live.

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

It takes both sunshine and rain to make a rainbow.

If we don't know life, how can we know death?
