There's a difference between knowing god and knowing about god. knowing about god is all of the stuff we've been told and all of the books we've read and all of our religious experiences and what others have told us and tried to convince us of. but knowing god is when we make conscious contact.

If i have one message to give to the secular american people, it's that the world is not divided into countries. the world is not divided between east and west. you are american, i am iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. the difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. and the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. and our governments are very much the same.

I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.

I'm very religious, you know. now, ok, if by 'religious', you mean that i go to church every sunday, read the bible faithfully, and i listen to debbie boone, umm, i'm not religious in that sense... but if by 'religious' you mean that i love others and try to help them whenever possible... again, no. but if by 'religious' you mean that i like to eat coleslaw... yeah, ok, ok!

The true enlightenment thinker, the true rationalist, never wants to talk anyone into anything. no, he does not even want to convince; all the time he is aware that he may be wrong. above all, he values the intellectual independence of others too highly to want to convince them in important matters. he would much rather invite contradiction, preferably in the form of rational and disciplined criticism. he seeks not to convince but to arouse - to challenge others to form free opinions.

The books in mo and meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. there where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. books on the tv set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. they welcomed meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. and sometimes you fall over them.

Once in my childhood i had been eager to learn irish; i thought to get leave to take lessons from an old scripture-reader who spent a part of his time in the parish of killinane, teaching such scholars as he could find to read their own language in the hope that they might turn to the only book then being printed in irish, the bible.

I have an ambition to write a great book, but that's really a competition with myself. i've noticed that a lot of young writers, people in all media, want to be famous but they don't really want to do anything. i can't think of anything less worth striving for than fame.
