Mark Twain (Quote)
“Man is the only religious animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion — several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself and cuts his throat, if his theology isn't straight. He has made a graveyard of the globe in trying his honest best to smooth his brother's path to happiness and heaven.”
—Twain (1835-1910), "The Damned Human Race," from "Letters from the Earth" (1909)
