Famous quotes containing the words cathedral and/or definition:

“Now, honestly: if a large group of ... demonstrators blocked the entrances to St. Patrick’s Cathedral every Sunday for years, making it impossible for worshipers to get inside the church without someone escorting them through screaming crowds, wouldn’t some judge rule that those protesters could keep protesting, but behind police lines and out of the doorways?”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1953)

“... we all know the wag’s definition of a philanthropist: a man whose charity increases directly as the square of the distance.”
