“Infidelity is the first sign of religion,
Disbelief is the sign of practical divinity.

To question division is to practice humanity.”
― Yarasistan: My Wounds, My Crown

“God is Schrodinger's cat,
one moment it's there, the next it's not -
all depends on the state of mind -
God is the oldest fear-bending construct.”
― The Humanitarian Dictator
