Famous quotes containing the words church and/or today:
“It’s better to sit in the bar and think of church than to sit in church and to think of the bar.”
—Swedish proverb, trans. by Verne Moberg.
“To the degree that respect for professors ... has risen in our society, respect for writers has fallen.

—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
