Roman Church

Famous quotes containing the words roman and/or church:

    Communism, my friend, is more than Marxism, just as Catholicism ... is more than the Roman Curia. There is a mystique as well as a politique.... Catholics and Communists have committed great crimes, but at least they have not stood aside, like an established society, and been indifferent. I would rather have blood on my hands than water like Pilate.
    Graham Greene (1904–1991)

    There was on old person of Fratton
    Who went to church with his hat on.
    “If I wake up,” he said,
    “With my hat on my head,
    I shall know that it hasn’t been sat on.”
