Famous quotes containing the word religion:

“‘Tis probable Religion after this
Came next in order; which they could not miss.
How could the Dutch but be converted, when
The Apostles were so many fishermen?
Besides the waters of themselves did rise,
And, as their land, so them did re-baptize.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
“India has 2,000,000 gods, and worships them all. In religion other countries are paupers; India is the only millionaire.”
