He’s not really a religious man, but he knows which side his bread’s buttered on. The churches pay his salary, so he doesn’t want anyone rocking the boat with unorthodox rumours.

(Do you consider yourself a religious person?) No, not at all. I see the Bible as a source of inspiration, for me it’s literature.

I think I'm a very religious person. I think I believe in God as much as any man does. I don't only believe in God, I know there's God.

I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.

I am not religious. I believe in God, I draw my strength from God, I belong to a church and prayer group, I do my devotions every day, I take time off to read the word of God and to pray and I believe I get guidance from God.

Religion? Yes, I know it well; I've heard its prayers and creeds,

I’d have asked him [Tony Blair] about his faith, because we were told, when journalists asked about Blair’s faith, the reply was, “We don’t do God here.” Well, of course, he does do God, and he reports that his actions have been put before God and confirmed, as if somehow God has signed a chit for him.

I believe him, and I'm convinced that he is.

He does not believe that does not live according to his belief.

Un homme de bien, un homme de bon sens, croit toujours ce qu’on lui dit et ce qu’il trouve dans les livres.

The law merchant respects the religion of different people.

I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.

Fathers, I do not practice. I’m not religious in life, but when I perform "The Creation of the World" and when my soul is touched by the confrontation of "Good and Evil", then God enters in me.

And you just know he knows he knows.
