Famous quotes containing the words eastern, orthodox and/or churches:

    “I open with a clock striking, to beget an awful attention in the audience—it also marks the time, which is four o’clock in the morning, and saves a description of the rising sun, and a great deal about gilding the eastern hemisphere.”
    —Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)

    “All orthodox opinion—that is, today, “revolutionary” opinion either of the pure or the impure variety—is anti-man.”
    —Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    “The churches ... have lost much of their authority over youth because they have refused to re-examine their religious sanctions and their dogmatic preaching in the light of modern physiology, psychology and sociology.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
