Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or figure:

    I have been grateful to you from the day you turned your attention to the follies and fanaticisms of religious sects. Against those fools and impostors you employ the most appropriate weapons: to use others would be to imitate them. It is by ridicule that they must be attacked, and by scorn that they must be punished.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    ... only
    A figure spun on stirring of the air,
    And so, untrue.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
