Famous quotes containing the words philosophy and/or theology:

    “Of your philosophy you make no use
    If you give place to accidental evils.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Only men of moral and mental force, of a patriotic regard for the relationship of the two races, can be of real service as ministers in the South. Less theology and more of human brotherhood, less declamation and more common sense and love for truth, must be the qualifications of the new ministry that shall yet save the race from the evils of false teaching.”
    —Fannie Barrier Williams (1855–1944)
