Morality Plays

Famous quotes containing the words morality and/or plays:

“All religions have based morality on obedience, that is to say, on voluntary slavery. That is why they have always been more pernicious than any political organisation. For the latter makes use of violence, the former—of the corruption of the will.”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

“At the extreme north, the voyagers are obliged to dance and act plays for employment.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
