Famous quotes containing the words catholic and/or league:

    In fact what America expects of its citizens and what the Catholic Church expects of the faithful are sometimes so different that they lead to an enormous ker-KLUNK between democracy and theology.

    Half a league, half a league,
    Half a league onward,
    All in the valley of Death
    Rode the six hundred.
