Ok but I've definitely seen a burning bush before

I can't find a source for this quote. Twain gets a lot of attributions. Can anyone point me to something that says which work he wrote this in?

If it doesn't sound remotely close to Twain, it's not Twain.

Mark Twain said that.

I see nothing reputable after a cursory search, but I did find "The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man's." - Mark Twain which I choose to believe, and now I want to train a LLM on his corpus and have it on voice recognition. 'Hey Sam, what do ya think of this' is likely to provide hours of amusement, thanks for the diversion.

Read Dune. There’s meaning to be had, just make sure to answer your reaching questions with moderate but clear emotion.

Atheism? Against what? Oneness? That’s a mathematical definition that can’t help but also define the word Boundary.

Emotion is the source of meaning, and it is “irrational.”

Words.

The only God I believe in is the one I use to see all of me, even the parts that can’t agree with each other. The non-part that adds to the sum. (that’s more than the sum resulting from the combination of any amount of addable quantities).

Flying birds, yet still nonsense to you, who is not me.
