Philip Roth Quotes

Religion Was A Lie That He Had Recognized Early In Life, And He Found All Religions Offensive, Considered Their Superstitious Folderol Meaningless, Childish, Couldn't Stand The Complete Unadultness - The Baby Talk And The Righteousness And The Sheep, The Avid Believers. No Hocus-pocus About Death And God Or Obsolete Fantasies Of Heaven For Him. There Was Only Our Bodies, Born To Live And Die On Terms Decided By The Bodies That Had Lived And Died Before Us. If He Could Be Said To Have Located A Philosophical Niche For Himself That Was It - He'd Come Upon It Early And Intuitively, And However Elemental, That Was The Whole Of It. Should He Ever Write An Autobiography, He'd Call It The Life And Death Of A Male Body.
