Young People's Religious Union

The Young People's Religious Union, or YPRU, was a Unitarian Youth organization founded in 1896. It was superseded by Liberal Religious Youth in 1953, as Unitarianism and Universalism came ever-closer together, but before the official merge in 1961.

Famous quotes containing the words young, people, religious and/or union:

    The young always have the same problem—how to rebel and conform at the same time. They have now solved this by defying their parents and copying one another.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    Give this to Clemenza. I want reliable people, people who won’t get carried away. I mean, we’re not murderers, in spite of what this undertaker says.
    Mario Puzo (b. 1920)

    When holy and devout religious men
    Are at their beads, ‘tis much to draw them thence,
    So sweet is zealous contemplation.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It would be unjust, and moreover Utopian, for Shakespeare to direct the shoemakers’ union. But it would be equally disastrous for the shoemakers’ union to ignore Shakespeare.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
