Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “There is not a greater paradox in nature,—than that so good a religion [as Christianity] should be no better recommended by its professors.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “A religion so cheerless, a philosophy so sorrowful, could never have succeeded with the masses of mankind if presented only as a system of metaphysics. Buddhism owed its success to its catholic spirit and its beautiful morality.”
    —W. Winwood Reade (1838–1875)

    “The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
