Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “A strong argument for the religion of Christ is this—that offences against Charity are about the only ones which men on their death-beds can be made—not to understand—but to feel—as crime.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)

    “There is more religion in men’s science than there is science in their religion.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Religion is doing; a man does not merely think his religion or feel it, he “lives” his religion as much as he is able, otherwise it is not religion but fantasy or philosophy.”
    —George Gurdjieff (c. 1877–1949)
