Righteous Armies

Famous quotes containing the words righteous and/or armies:

    There are only two kinds of men: the righteous who think they are sinners and the sinners who think they are righteous.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    There is an universal tendency among mankind to conceive all beings like themselves, and to transfer to every object, those qualities, with which they are familiarly acquainted, and of which they are intimately conscious. We find human faces in the moon, armies in the clouds; and by a natural propensity, if not corrected by experience and reflection, ascribe malice or good-will to every thing, that hurts or pleases us.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
