Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or figures:

    I am always most religious upon a sunshiny day ...
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I’m not going to deny that you don’t now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
