Our high respect for a well read person is praise enough for literature.

Don't ever know who you may meet or just because a person may not be dressed up all fancy don't mean they're not an important person. You just don't ever know who you're gonna meet in life. So that's why I look at everybody as equal. Can't just judge. I treat everybody with respect. Every man.

I think a lot of people have lost respect for the individual you know the individual the person who doesn't conform.

The person who comes up to you and makes the most noise and is the most intrusive is invariably the person in the room who has no respect for you at all and it's really all about them.

I've been a little bit obsessed with religion without being a religious person for about a decade.

I have a strong belief in God... I find religion to be a very personal thing... I am also very spiritual.

I am a person whose father had no religion but who went to the nuns for a couple of years. And I think I'm the same: On one hand I pray on the other hand I don't believe. I am constantly between the two.

I could never say that one religion is wrong. I could never say that this person's God is wrong I could never say that someone is wrong because they don't believe in God.

I'm still a person a human being no matter what religion I am.

The secret of a person's nature lies in their religion and what they really believes about the world and their place in it.

All the different nations in the world despite their differences of appearance and religion and language and way of life still have one thing in common and that is what's inside of all of us. If we X-rayed the insides of different human beings we wouldn't be able to tell from those X-rays what the person's language or background or race is.

There was a time when someone would get on a plane and request to move their seat just because the person sitting next to them was of a different ethnicity or religion or nationality. But I don't think my generation wants that. That's how it used to be.

I'm not a religious person and I'm not too interested in being a part of a religion but I do like having some sort of communal gathering and having some sense of peoples.

We must not enable anyone to impose his personal view regarding religion on others by force oppression or pressure.

The American way was for commerce personal relationships and religion to be voluntary. No one was forced to participate in something he didn't want.

The Christian use of religion as a personal love affair both shocked me and attracted me.

My political ideas and things like that even my religion I try to keep close to me because it's a personal thing and I don't shove it down people's throats. I don't condemn any artist that wants to do that like the Baldwins. That's their choice. But in my world I'm just an entertainer.

Religion promotes the divine discontent within oneself so that one tries to make oneself a better person and draw oneself closer to God.

I do not find it easy to articulate thoughts about religion. I remain the sort of person who turns off 'Thought for the Day' when it comes on the radio.

Religion survives because it answers three questions that every reflective person must ask. Who am I? Why am I here? How then shall I live?

One person's religion is another person's cult.

Beside all this I think there was something personal being Muslim myself who lived in the west I felt that it was my obligation my duty to tell the truth about Islam. It is a religion that has a 700 million following yet it's so little known about it which surprised me.

I've found a more personal pagan kind of religion to satisfy the spiritual side of things.

I'm very interested in religion as something to study but I'm not a religious person in the slightest.
