Famous quotes containing the words writing and/or systems:

    ‘Tis hard to say, if greater want of skill
    Appear in writing or in judging ill;
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    What avails it that you are a Christian, if you are not purer than the heathen, if you deny yourself no more, if you are not more religious? I know of many systems of religion esteemed heathenish whose precepts fill the reader with shame, and provoke him to new endeavors, though it be to the performance of rites merely.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
