Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “The only human beings I have thoroughly admired and respected in the world have been those who carried the load of the world with a smile, and who, in the face of anxieties that would have knocked me clean out, never showed a tremor. Such men and women end by owning us, soul and body, and our allegiance can never be shaken. We are only too glad to be owned. Religion is nothing but this.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “In the religion of all nations a purity is hinted at, which, I fear, men never attain to.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “All Protestantism, even the most cold and passive, is a sort of dissent. But the religion most prevalent in our northern colonies is a refinement on the principle of resistance; it is the dissidence of dissent, and the Protestantism of the Protestant religion.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
