Famous quotes containing the word roman:
“My first childish doubt as to whether God could really be a good Protestant was suggested by my observation of the deplorable fact that the best voices available for combination with my mothers in the works of the great composers had been unaccountably vouchsafed to Roman Catholics.”
—George Bernard Shaw (18561950)
