Religion's in the heart, not in the knees.

Religion's in the heart, not in the knees.

Summary

This quote suggests that the true essence of religion lies within one's beliefs, values, and faith, rather than in performing external rituals or displaying physical acts of worship such as kneeling. It implies that while religious practices might be important, they are only meaningful if they stem from a sincere devotion and spirituality rooted in one's heart. The quote emphasizes that true religious experience goes beyond external appearances and is rooted in one's personal connection with their beliefs. Religion is seen here as a deeply personal and internal aspect of one's being.
