Christian Blood

Famous quotes containing the words christian and/or blood:

    I’ll not be made a soft and dull-eyed fool
    To shake the head, relent, and sigh, and yield
    To Christian intercessors.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Religion! How it dominates man’s mind, how it humiliates and degrades his soul. God is everything, man is nothing, says religion. But out of that nothing God has created a kingdom so despotic, so tyrannical, so cruel, so terribly exacting that naught but gloom and tears and blood have ruled the world since gods began.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
