False Priest

Famous quotes containing the words false and/or priest:

    I have been born many times, a false Messiah,
    but let me be born again
    into something true.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Never has any one been less a priest than Jesus, never a greater enemy of forms, which stifle religion under the pretext of protecting it. By this we are all his disciples and his successors; by this he has laid the eternal foundation-stone of true religion; and if religion is essential to humanity, he has by this deserved the Divine rank the world has accorded him.
    Ernest Renan (1823–1892)
