Isaac Bashevis Singer, 1904-1991
Doubt is part of all religion. All the religious thinkers were doubters.
( New York Times Magazine, Mar. 12, 1978 )
It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.
( Letter, 24 March 1954. Quoted in “Albert Einstein: The Human Side,” edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffman )
If there is any religion that could cope with modern scientific needs, it would be Buddhism.
( Gary Young M.D.'s lecture on chaos theory and Buddhism in Oregon State University on 04/17/03 (SGI-USA) )
