Religion is a search for transcendence. But transcendence isnt necessarily sited in an external god, which can be a very unspiritual, unreligious concept. – Karen Armstrong
Religion supports nobody. It has to be supported. It produces no wheat, no corn; it ploughs no land; it fells no forests. It is a perpetual mendicant. It lives on the labors of others, and then has the arrogance to pretend that it supports the giver. – Robert G. Ingersoll
Madonna is a pro. I dont like her and have no respect for her but- I dont think she should be called a musician or a dancer or whatever you know, but I do have, well I do have respect for her ability to completely manipulate the media and have them work for her. – Jon Fishman
I was really into classifieds for awhile. Im a big negotiator. My father owned a car dealership when I was younger… its just in my blood. – Jake Johnson
