Famous quotes containing the words roman and/or missal:
“It is a dogma of the Roman Church that the existence of God can be proved by natural reason. Now this dogma would make it impossible for me to be a Roman Catholic. If I thought of God as another being like myself, outside myself, only infinitely more powerful, then I would regard it as my duty to defy him.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“May they rest in peace.
[Requiescant in pace.]”
—Missal, The. Order of Mass for the Dead.
