Fascism is a religion. The twentieth century will be known in history as the century of Fascism.

Religion, to me, is a bureaucracy between man and God that I don't need.

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.

Joy in the universe, and keen curiosity about it all - that has been my religion.

Religious people often prefer to be right rather than compassionate. Often, they don't want to give up their egotism. They want their religion to endorse their ego, their identity.
