Famous quotes containing the words religion and/or philosophy:

    Not thou nor thy religion dost controule,
    The amorousnesse of an harmonious Soule,
    But thou would’st have that love thy selfe: As thou
    Art jealous, Lord, so I am jealous now,
    Thou lov’st not, till from loving more, thou free
    My soule: Who ever gives, takes libertie:
    O, if thou car’st not whom I love
    Alas, thou lov’st not mee.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    A writer must always try to have a philosophy and he should also have a psychology and a philology and many other things. Without a philosophy and a psychology and all these various other things he is not really worthy of being called a writer. I agree with Kant and Schopenhauer and Plato and Spinoza and that is quite enough to be called a philosophy. But then of course a philosophy is not the same thing as a style.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
