“God's original name is Human, but it isn't very profitable, so the apes cook up fancy names, and sprinkle in tales of magic. Organized religion is the planet's largest circus, where apes commodify divinity to sell tickets - more divide means more fear, means more control, divine distant from human is the holy grail of commerce. Human is the first and final name of divinity, but that goes against the entire religious industrial complex - for the purpose of brevity I say religious, but I mean fundamentalist.”

“David Kirkpatrick, a bald, former Jesuit student, whose smile never looked real, had the dubious distinction of being the executive with the longest run without a hit. We used to have a pool: When will Kirkpatrick get a hit? It didn't happen during my tenure. In fact, he became known as "The Teflon Executive, " because wherever he went, failure always followed. But for the longest time, it seemed that the bombs never stuck to him.”
