Religions Objection

Famous quotes containing the words religions and/or objection:

    The ancients adorned their sarcophagi with the emblems of life and procreation, and even with obscene symbols; in the religions of antiquity the sacred and the obscene often lay very close together. These men knew how to pay homage to death. For death is worthy of homage as the cradle of life, as the womb of palingenesis.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    It is obvious that rationality has been utterly lost in modern marriage: which is no objection to marriage, however, but rather to modernity.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
