Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    You say there is no religion now. ‘Tis like saying in rainy weather, there is no sun, when at that moment we are witnessing one of his superlative effects.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There is not enough religion in the world even to destroy religion.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    As for Hitler, his professed religion unhesitatingly juxtaposed the God-Providence and Valhalla. Actually his god was an argument at a political meeting and a manner of reaching an impressive climax at the end of speeches.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
