I am basically a religious man.
Meaning of the quote
A religious person is someone who believes in and practices a particular religion. When Cyril Cusack, an Irish actor, says he is "basically a religious man," he means that his beliefs and way of life are strongly influenced by his religious faith. This suggests that religion is an important part of who he is and how he sees the world.
