Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    The stallion and his mare,
    unbridled, with arrow-pattern,
    are worked on.
    the blue cloth
    before the door
    of religion and inspiration....
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Religion is this. They act as in religion that is to say they neither wait nor stay away. Religion is best as it is. If they like it at all they like it all, not only more than once but often.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
