Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “Every sect is a moral check on its neighbour. Competition is as wholesome in religion as in commerce.”
    —Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)

    “In this great association we know no North, no South, no East, no West. This has been our pride for all these years. We have no political party. We never have inquired what anybody’s religion is. All we ever have asked is simply, “Do you believe in perfect equality for women?” This is the one article in our creed.”
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    “In the religion of all nations a purity is hinted at, which, I fear, men never attain to.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
