Karen Armstrong Quotes:

Ocupation: Author

Life: b. November 14, 1944

Birthday: November 14

It is people who are violent, rather than "religions"; and since we secularised our politics we have had two major world wars, the Holocaust, the Soviet Gulag, and the atomic attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki - none of which were inspired by religion. If we want to understand the dangers of our world, we can no longer accept the old received ideas.

- Karen Armstrong
