A brief interlude of J Krishnamurti, and other great quotes

A brief interlude of J Krishnamurti, and other great quotes
So I was thinking, I haven't seen a great quotes thread, perhaps we could begin one here? If not then perhaps just take a moment to appreciate this one, which I've found to be rather useful of late and which, fantastically, has a real sense of profundity to it (mostly in the audible version but here it loses little)

Quote:First to realise not verbally but in your heart, in your blood, in your whole thinking, that human beings right through the world go through the same agonies that one goes through: the loneliness, the despair, the depressions, the extraordinary uncertainty, insecurity, whether they live ten thousand miles away or two thousand miles, or here, they are all psychologically bound together"
Krishnamurti, 1979
Religion is an attempt to answer the philosophical questions of the unphilosophical man.
