Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “... religion can only change when the emotions which fill it are changed; and the religion of personal fear remains nearly at the level of the savage.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “There is not a greater paradox in nature,—than that so good a religion [as Christianity] should be no better recommended by its professors.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “When I read of the vain discussions of the present day about the Virgin Birth and other old dogmas which belong to the past, I feel how great the need is still of a real interest in the religion which builds up character, teaches brotherly love, and opens up to the seeker such a world of usefulness and the beauty of holiness.”
    —Olympia Brown (1835–1900)
