जब इंसान ताओ को समझता है, तो वह केवल अपने भीतर के ताओ को समझता है, न कि असली ताओ को। ताओ किसी एक व्यक्ति या जगह का नहीं है; ताओ स्वाभाविक है। इससे कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता कि आप कहाँ जाते हैं, यह हमेशा वहीं रहेगा। कोई इस पर अपना अधिकार नहीं जता सकता।

When humans understand Tao, we understand the Tao within ourselves, not the true Tao. Tao doesn't belong to any one or any place; Tao is natural. It doesn't matter where you go, it will always be there. No one can claim ownership of it.

बाइबिल यह सिखाती है कि एक पिता अपनी बेटी को दासी के रूप में बेच सकता है, कि वह भीड़ के सामने उसकी पवित्रता की बलि दे सकता है, और यह कि वह उसकी हत्या करके भी एक अच्छा पिता और एक पवित्र इंसान बना रह सकता है। यह सिखाती है कि एक पुरुष कितनी भी पत्नियां रख सकता है; कि वह उन्हें बेच सकता है, दान कर सकता है, या आपस में बदल सकता है, और फिर भी एक आदर्श सज्जन, एक अच्छा पति, एक धर्मी पुरुष, और भगवान का बेहद करीबी दोस्त बना रह सकता है—और शुरुआत के लिए यह एक बहुत अच्छी स्थिति है।

The bible teaches that a father may sell his daughter for a slave, that he may sacrifice her purity to a mob, and that he may murder her, and still be a good father and a holy man. It teaches that a man may have any number of wives; that he may sell them, give them away, or swap them around, and still be a perfect gentleman, a good husband, a righteous man, and one of God's most intimate friends; and that is a pretty good position for a beginning.

प्रगति के लिए सबसे घातक प्रहार है बौद्धिक गुलामी। मानवता का सबसे पवित्र अधिकार सोचने का अधिकार है, और सोचने के अधिकार के तुरंत बाद बिना किसी डर के उस विचार को व्यक्त करने का अधिकार आता है।

The most fatal blow to progress is slavery of the intellect. The most sacred right of humanity is the right to think, and next to the right to think is the right to express that thought without fear.

मेरी एक्टिंग अश्लील थी या अरुचिकर, इस पर बात करें तो—जज रेनक्विस्ट, जिनका हाल ही में निधन हुआ है, वे खुद पोर्नोग्राफी की परिभाषा नहीं दे पाए थे। पोर्नोग्राफी पर उनकी टिप्पणी थी, "शायद मैं इसे परिभाषित न कर पाऊँ, लेकिन देखते ही पहचान जाता हूँ।" यह कोई कानून नहीं है। यह बिल्कुल भी कानून नहीं है। सच कहूँ तो, यह मुकदमा किसी संगठित अपराध (ऑर्गेनाइज्ड क्राइम) का होना चाहिए था—हत्या, टैक्स चोरी और लोगों पर जुल्म ढाने के मामलों पर। अश्लीलता पर नहीं।

मेरा आखिरी विरोध पत्र जमा करने के बाद एक विरोधी ने मुझसे कहा, अगर आपको वोट देने का मौका मिले तो आप किस पार्टी को चुनेंगी? किसी को नहीं। मैं तो एक 'नैतिक भावना' वाली पार्टी चाहूंगी। मैं अपने उम्मीदवार का निजी चरित्र देखना चाहूंगी, यह भी जानना चाहूंगी कि वह अपनी संपत्ति का कैसे ध्यान रखता है— क्या वह कभी व्यापार में विफल रहा है— और यदि हाँ, तो क्या उसने कमाई करते ही अपने कर्ज का पाई-पाई चुका दिया है। हाँ, हर उम्मीदवार की नैतिकता की परख होनी चाहिए, और यदि यह पाया जाता है कि वह अपनी अंतरात्मा की आवाज के प्रति एक मोर्चे पर ईमानदार नहीं रहा है, तो वह दूसरे मोर्चे पर भी कभी ईमानदार नहीं हो सकता और न ही होगा।

Said an opponent to me after my last protest was sent in, what party would you vote for, if you could? Neither. I would have a moral sentiment party. I would know the private character of my candidate, would know also whether he takes care of his own property - whether he had failed in business - if so, whether he had paid back every dollar of debt as fast as he had earned them. Yes, every candidate should be examined morally, and if it be found that he has not been true to the monitions of conscience in one direction, he cannot or will not be in another.

दूसरे धर्मों के बारे में मुझे कोई खास जानकारी नहीं है, इसलिए मैं उन पर कोई राय नहीं दूँगा, लेकिन इस्लाम में आप धर्म के बारे में जितना ज़्यादा जानेंगे, उतनी ही ज़्यादा संभावना इस बात की है कि आप जहन्नुम (नर्क) में जाएँगे। कई लोगों को यह बात अजीब या विरोधाभासी लगेगी, क्योंकि हम आम तौर पर यह सोचते हैं कि धर्म वह ज़रिया है जो हमें अंदर से बेहतर महसूस कराए, और जिसका इस्तेमाल हम काफिरों, पाखंडियों या धर्मद्रोहियों को कोसे और उन्हें खुद से दूर करने के लिए करें। मेरे लिए ऐसा इस्लाम ढूँढना बेहद मुश्क़िल था जो सचमुच मेरा अपना लगे और ऐसा न लगे कि उसे मुझ पर जबरन थोपा गया है।

I have no expertise of other religious traditions so I'm not going to opine on them, but in Islam the more you know about the religion, the more likely you're going to go to hell. Many people will find that paradoxical because we tend to think of religion as a way of making ourselves feel better and a way of damning and excluding infidels or reprobates or heretics or what have you. It was very hard for me to find an Islam that belongs to me and doesn't feel like it's been imposed on me.
