Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “As soon as beauty is sought, not from religion and love, but for pleasure, it degrades the seeker.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Our religion ... is itself profoundly sad—a religion of universal anguish, and one which, because of its very catholicity, grants full liberty to the individual and asks no better than to be celebrated in each man’s own language—so long as he knows anguish and is a painter.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “It is manifest therefore that they who have sovereign power, are immediate rulers of the church under Christ, and all others but subordinate to them. If that were not, but kings should command one thing upon pain of death, and priests another upon pain of damnation, it would be impossible that peace and religion should stand together.”
    —Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
