Perhaps not one religion contains all of the truth of the world. Perhaps every religion contains fragments of the truth, and it is our responsibility to identify those fragments and piece them together.

Christopher Paolini
About This Quote

This quote is a very interesting one, and I find it to be an important point. As humans, we’re curious about the world around us, and we want to learn everything we can about it. But this is a process that can take many years, and we can feel like we’ve learned nothing. This is why Anais Nin said that perhaps not one religion contains all of the truth of the world. Perhaps every religion contains fragments of the truth, and it is our responsibility to identify those fragments and piece them together.
