Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    It is manifest therefore that they who have sovereign power, are immediate rulers of the church under Christ, and all others but subordinate to them. If that were not, but kings should command one thing upon pain of death, and priests another upon pain of damnation, it would be impossible that peace and religion should stand together.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    The religion which is to guide and fulfill the present and coming ages, whatever else it be, must be intellectual. The scientific mind must have a faith which is science.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Not thou nor thy religion dost controule,
    The amorousnesse of an harmonious Soule,
    But thou would’st have that love thy selfe: As thou
    Art jealous, Lord, so I am jealous now,
    Thou lov’st not, till from loving more, thou free
    My soule: Who ever gives, takes libertie:
    O, if thou car’st not whom I love
    Alas, thou lov’st not mee.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
