“It is the misanthrope who alone has clarity.By standing outside the huddles of man,he sees a lot,and what he often sees is the evidence that people are not as smart as dogs think they are.And he wants to see it time and again.In the fog of ambiguities and mysteries,he desperately searches for truths because truth usually shows humanity in a poor light”

“Touring an empty church while a guide whispers facts about its history seems akin to looking at a stuffed eagle instead of watching the live bird in flight. The theatricality of the Mass - the elaborate vestments, the rhythmic Latin chants, the fragrant smoke rising from the centres, the re-enactment of Christ's Last Supper beneath a lifelike, gruesome Crucifix - creates an emotionality that transports the worshippers to a state of ecstasy, in which the Passion of our Lord becomes quite real.”
