Famous quotes containing the words pope and/or gregory:

    From pride, from pride, our very reas’ning springs;
    Account for moral, as for nat’ral things:
    Why charge we Heav’n in those, in these acquit?
    In both, to reason right is to submit.
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    It is the custom of the Roman Church which I unworthily serve with the help of God, to tolerate some things, to turn a blind eye to some, following the spirit of discretion rather than the rigid letter of the law.
    —Pope Gregory VII (c. 1020–1085)
