Famous quotes containing the word persecution:
“I hate Science. It denies a mans responsibility for his own deeds, abolishes the brotherhood that springs from Gods fatherhood. It is a hectoring, dictating expertise, which makes the least lovable of the Church Fathers seem liberal by contrast. It is far easier for a Hitler or a Stalin to find a mock- scientific excuse for persecution than it was for Dominic to find a mock-Christian one.”
—Basil Bunting (19001985)
