Famous quotes containing the word religious:

    “It is not funny that anything else should fall down; only that a man should fall down.... Why do we laugh? Because it is a gravely religious matter: it is the Fall of Man. Only man can be absurd: for only man can be dignified.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
