Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “As soon as beauty is sought, not from religion and love, but for pleasure, it degrades the seeker.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “‘Tis probable Religion after this
    Came next in order; which they could not miss.
    How could the Dutch but be converted, when
    The Apostles were so many fishermen?
    Besides the waters of themselves did rise,
    And, as their land, so them did re-baptize.”
    —Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    “A heroic figure ... not wholly to blame for the religion that’s been foisted on him.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
