    “May they rest in peace.
    [Requiescant in pace.]”
    —Missal, The. Order of Mass for the Dead.

    “That high All-seer which I dallied with
    Hath turned my feigned prayer on my head,
    And given in earnest what I begged in jest.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I’m not making light of prayers here, but of so-called school prayer, which bears as much resemblance to real spiritual experience as that freeze-dried astronaut food bears to a nice standing rib roast. From what I remember of praying in school, it was almost an insult to God, a rote exercise in moving your mouth while daydreaming or checking out the cutest boy in the seventh grade that was a far, far cry from soul-searching.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
