Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “Intolerance respecting other people’s religion is toleration itself in comparison with intolerance respecting other people’s art.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Our religion vulgarly stands on numbers of believers. Whenever the appeal is made—no matter how indirectly—to numbers, proclamation is then and there made, that religion is not. He that finds God a sweet, enveloping presence, who shall dare to come in?”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
