Famous quotes containing the words russian and/or church:
“Watching a woman make Russian pancakes, you might think that she was calling on the spirits or extracting from the batter the philosophers stone.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (18601904)
“I condemn Christianity. I raise against the Christian church the most terrible accusation that any accuser has ever uttered. It is to me the ultimate conceivable corruption. It has possessed the will to the final corruption that is even possible. The Christian church has left nothing untouched by its depravity: it has turned every value into a disvalue, every truth into a falsehood, every integrity into a vileness of the soul.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
