Luminous Religion

Famous quotes containing the words luminous and/or religion:

    let geese
    Gabble and hiss, but heroes seek release
    From dusty bondage into luminous air.
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)

    Our religion vulgarly stands on numbers of believers. Whenever the appeal is made—no matter how indirectly—to numbers, proclamation is then and there made, that religion is not. He that finds God a sweet, enveloping presence, who shall dare to come in?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
