Famous quotes containing the words change, religious and/or conversion:

    “The change of Philomel, by the barbarous king
    So rudely forced: yet there the nightingale
    Filled all the desert with inviolable voice
    And still she cried, and still the world pursues,
    “Jug Jug” to dirty ears.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “Never for a moment have I had one doubt about my religious beliefs. There are people who believe only so far as they can understand—that seems to me presumptuous and sets their understanding as the standard of the universe.”
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    “The conversion of a savage to Christianity is the conversion of Christianity to savagery.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
