Famous quotes containing the words nature and/or cult:

    “Now narrow minds can develop as well through persecution as through benevolence; they can assure themselves of their power by tyrannizing cruelly or beneficently over others; they go the way their nature guides them. Add to this the guidance of interest, and you will have the key to most social riddles.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “A cult is a religion with no political power.”
    —Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
