Famous quotes containing the word worship:

    “It is not enough for us to prostrate ourselves under the tree which is Creation, and to contemplate its tremendous branches filled with stars. We have a duty to perform, to work upon the human soul, to defend the mystery against the miracle, to worship the incomprehensible while rejecting the absurd; to accept, in the inexplicable, only what is necessary; to dispel the superstitions that surround religion—to rid God of His Maggots.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “Men do not accept their prophets and slay them, but they love their martyrs and worship those whom they have tortured to death.”
    —Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)

    “We worship the aesthetic, but we do not have faith in it.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
