Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “Unless criticism refuses to take itself quite so seriously or at least to permit its readers not to, it will inevitably continue to reflect the finicky canons of the genteel tradition and the depressing pieties of the Culture Religion of Modernism.”
    —Leslie Fiedler (b. 1917)

    “... religion can only change when the emotions which fill it are changed; and the religion of personal fear remains nearly at the level of the savage.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
