Famous quotes containing the words age and/or religion:

    “With hym ther was his sone, a yong squier,
    A lovyere and a lusty bacheler,
    With lokkes crulle as they were leyd in presse.
    Of twenty yeer of age he was, I gesse.
    Of his stature he was of evene lengthe,
    And wonderly delyvere, and of greet strengthe.”
    —Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    “I never saw, heard, nor read, that the clergy were beloved in any nation where Christianity was the religion of the country. Nothing can render them popular, but some degree of persecution.”
    —Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
