Quote  Category: Religion “Much of what has been called religion has an unconscious attitude of hostility toward life. True religion must teach that life is filled with joys pleasing to the eye of God, that knowledge without action is empty. All men must see that the teaching of religion by rule and rote is largely a hoax. The proper teaching is recognized with ease. You can know it without fail because it awakens within you that sensation which tells you this is something you've always known.” - Frank Patrick Herbert (1920-1986) Dune - US science fiction novelist; wrote Dune series 1965, novel Soul Catcher 1971.
