"I acknowledge the challenge of believing in a supernatural divinity. After all, in the natural a rock is a rock; a desk is a desk; my skin is my skin. Or are they? That rock you pick up and feel on your skin and place on the desk is 99.9% empty space-between atoms; as is your skin and the desk. So, perhaps it is our perception of the natural or "real world that needs tweaking, not the supernatural."

"Any thought sequence that minimizes anxiety would get reinforced over time. The sequence would be maintained during the person's development and would be provoked in contexts where refutation of the belief might occur. So, any kind of refutation of a person's religious beliefs makes the beliefs only stronger."
"Belief is indeed psychologically important for the human mind of general population, but that belief should be nicely compatible with scientific reasoning, otherwise that belief turns into prejudice, which is never beneficial to the human life."
"Whatever may be the position of science, whatever may be the position of philosophy, as long as there is such a thing as death in the world, as long as there is such a thing as weakness in the human heart, as long as the human heart sheds a drop of tear in weakness, there shall be a faith in God and divinity."
"Deep scientific psychoanalysis reveals that excessive beliefs and dependence on religion is a superstition and fear induced psychiatric disease."
"Wrong belief is what bites one from the inside. There is no one biting him on the outside."
"It feels great to know that whatever you need to achieve your dreams are in you. Whatever the spider needs to make a cobweb is not in the housefly. Look to yourself, you have what it takes to weave your success!"
"I had also read somewhere that if a man didn't truly believe or understand what he was espousing, somehow he could do a more convincing job."

"Why is it that self-confidence is so often cocky and self-assured so often selfish? Neither has to be true. Having confidence doesn't require being superior over another and being self-assured doesn't require taking advantage of another."
"Faith is not the belief that everything will be all right tomorrow, but the belief that I possess the strength to make everything all right today."
"The thoughts that creep into our brain about other people tell us less about those people than they do about ourself...Understand that most judgments of others are an attempt to empower ourselves and give a sense of being better than the person we judge...Our primitive nature (automatic brain) helps us believe that this is necessary for protection. Following this natural tendency puts up further obstructions to the law of attraction."
"I cherish genuine conversation, where people actually care what someone else has to say."
"I believe having a vision in mind, a goal let's say, is a good thing. Unfortunately, so many of us are blinded by the greatness of our vision that paralysis and inaction sets in. What I try to do is focus on the individual steps, the moments if you will, and let them lead one to the next. The vision that eventually appears may not be exactly what you had in mind, but it will be the right one for you, because you did the work and you took the necessary action."
"You won't find your soul in a textbook, self-help book, or buy it in a store. Sometimes, it's just a matter of looking past the anger, regret, and envy to see its smiling face."
