"Every service is a structure of acts and words through which we rceive a sacrament, or repent, or supplicate, or adore.

"Although I myself don't go to church or synagogue, I do, whether it's superstition or whatever, pray every time I get on a plane. I just automatically do it. I say the same thing every time."
