I have something to fight for and live for; that makes me a better killer. Ive got what amounts to a religion, now.

And the Moon Be Still as Bright (1948)Ray Bradbury
Hinduism is a religion of violence. All Hindu gods killed their enemies and became heroic images. This is the only religion in the world where the killer becomes god. Whom did they kill? From Brahma to Krishna, those who were killed were Dalitbahujans. Now these images and the stories and narratives and everything is out there in the civil society. Now, because of this, the consciousness of worshipping the killer or worshipping violence did not give any space for human rights. So my question is the human rights discourse must start with an anti-warrior position.
Kancha Ilaiah
The intensive love that humanity has ever known has come from religion, and the most diabolical hatred that humanity has known has also come from religion. No other human motive had deluged the world with blood so much as religion; at the same time, nothing has brought into existence so many hospitals and asylums for the poor; no other human influence has taken such care, not only of humanity, but also the lowest of animals, as religion has done. Nothing makes us so cruel as religion, and nothing makes us so tender as religion.
Swami Vivekananda
Men will wrangle for religion, write for it, fight for it, die for it; anything but live for it.
Charles Caleb Colton
People have asked me to speak on being sick, and even specifically on chronic pain diseases. ... And I don't know what to tell you, except this this is something I have discovered. Your body is fighting to live. This is in your very blood, in your heart, in your bones your body is trying to live, it's fighting to live and don't give up without a fight, you know? Do what you can do. Figure something out. If you have to, fight with people to get help whatever it is, but don't give up without a fight. You remember mark my words you are here you should be here stay.
Ysabella Brave
Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
