Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or groups:

    After coming into contact with a religious man I always feel I must wash my hands.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    In properly organized groups no faith is required; what is required is simply a little trust and even that only for a little while, for the sooner a man begins to verify all he hears the better it is for him.
