Famous quotes containing the word capacity:
“The terrifying message of gay liberation is that men are capable of loving their brothers.

—Jane Rule (b. 1931)
“The real security of Christianity is to be found in its benevolent morality, in its exquisite adaptation to the human heart, in the facility with which its scheme accommodates itself to the capacity of every human intellect, in the consolation which it bears to the house of mourning, in the light with which it brightens the great mystery of the grave.”
—Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
