Kamand Kojouri
“We don鈥檛 find God
in temples and cathedrals.
We don鈥檛 find Him
by standing on a
prayer rug or sitting in a pew.
God appears when we
love someone other than ourselves.
And we continue to feel His presence
when we do good for others.
Because God is not found
in mosques and synagogues.
He resides in our
hearts.”
Kamand Kojouri

Robert G. Ingersoll
“I have heard them preach, when I sat in the pew and my feet did not touch the floor, about the final home of the unconverted. In order to impress upon the children the length of time they would probably stay if they settled in that country, the preacher would frequently give us the following illustration: 'Suppose that once in a billion years a bird should come from some far-distant planet, and carry off in its little bill a grain of sand, a time would finally come when the last atom composing this earth would be carried away; and when this last atom was taken, it would not even be sun up in hell.' Think of such an infamous doctrine being taught to children!”
Robert G. Ingersoll, The Liberty Of Man, Woman And Child

Robert Louis Stevenson
“If you had the pluck of a weevil in a biscuit, you would catch them!”
Robert Louis Stevenson, Treasure Island

Ray Bradbury
“Hers was simply not a pew shaped spine.”
Ray Bradbury, The Golden Apples of the Sun
