Hearth/religion

Famous quotes containing the words hearth and/or religion:

    Nor does the man sitting by the hearth beneath his roof better escape his fated doom.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    Those to whom God has imparted religion by feeling of the heart are very fortunate and are rightly convinced. But to those who do not have it, we can give it only by reasoning, waiting for God to give it by feeling of the heart—without which faith is only human and useless for salvation.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
