Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or figures:

    The tradition I cherish is the ideal this country was built upon, the concept of religious pluralism, of a plethora of opinions, of tolerance and not the jihad. Religious war, pooh. The war is between those who trust us to think and those who believe we must merely be led.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    The figures of the past go cloaked.
    They walk in mist and rain and snow
    And go, go slowly, but they go.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
