Famous quotes containing the word churches:

    “Good churches are not built by bad men; at least, there must be probity and enthusiasm somewhere in the society. These minsters were neither built nor filled by atheists.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Political organizations have slowly substituted themselves for the Churches as the places for believing practices.... Politics has once again become religious.”
    —Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)

    “People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
    Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
    The air is full of children, statues, roofs
    And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
    Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
    The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
