Famous quotes containing the word worship:

    “We have to be despised by somebody whom we regard as above us, or we are not happy; we have to have somebody to worship and envy, or we cannot be content. In America we manifest this in all the ancient and customary ways. In public we scoff at titles and hereditary privilege, but privately we hanker after them, and when we get a chance we buy them for cash and a daughter.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “The worship of Mammon may be vulgar or immoral, but it persists while other religions falter and disappear.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “With respect to a true culture and manhood, we are essentially provincial still, not metropolitan,—mere Jonathans. We are provincial, because we do not find at home our standards; because we do not worship truth, but the reflection of truth; because we are warped and narrowed by an exclusive devotion to trade and commerce and manufacturers and agriculture and the like, which are but means, and not the end.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
