Famous quotes containing the word religion:
“They live together without king, without government, and each is his own master.... Beyond the fact that they have no church, no religion and are not idolaters, what more can I say? They live according to nature, and may be called Epicureans rather than Stoics.”
—Amerigo Vespucci (14541512)
“I never saw, heard, nor read, that the clergy were beloved in any nation where Christianity was the religion of the country. Nothing can render them popular, but some degree of persecution.”
—Jonathan Swift (16671745)
“I told him that Goldsmith had said,... As I take my shoes from the shoemaker, and my coat from the taylor, so I take my religion from the priest. I regretted this loose way of talking. JOHNSON. Sir, he knows nothing; he has made up his mind about nothing.”
—Samuel Johnson (17091784)
