Famous quotes containing the word worship:
“Rationalists are admirable beings, rationalism is a hideous monster when it claims for itself omnipotence. Attribution of omnipotence to reason is as bad a piece of idolatry as is worship of stock and stone believing it to be God. I plead not for the suppression of reason, but for a due recognition of that in us which sanctifies reason.”
—Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)
“I hear as good exclamation on your worship as of any man in the city.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We worship the aesthetic, but we do not have faith in it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
