  A long and wicked life followed by five minutes of perfect grace gets you into Heaven. An equally long life of decent living and good works followed by one outburst of taking the name of the Lord in vain—then have a heart attack at that moment and be damned for eternity. Is that the system?
  —Robert A. Heinlein

  If you really want to make a lot of money, start your own religion.

  Without a doubt the greatest injury of all was done by basing morals on myth. For, sooner or later, myth is recognized for what it is, and disappears. Then morality loses the foundation on which it has been built.
  —Lord Samuel

  If you talk to God, you are praying. If God talks to you, you have schizophrenia.
