This whole bit by the hospitaller knight from Kingdom of Heaven, played by David Thewlis. I'm not what you'd call a spiritual person at all, but this stuck in my head:



Hospitaller: I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of God. Holiness is in right action and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. What God desires is here
[points to head]
Hospitaller: and here
[points to heart]
Hospitaller: and what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man - or not.
