Pilgrimage/christianity

Famous quotes containing the words pilgrimage and/or christianity:

    “Come hither, Son,” I heard Death say;
    “I did not will a grave
    Should end thy pilgrimage today,
    But I, too, am a slave!”
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    In great cities men are brought together by the desire of gain. They are not in a state of co-operation, but of isolation, as to the making of fortunes; and for all the rest they are careless of neighbours. Christianity teaches us to love our neighbour as ourself; modern society acknowledges no neighbour.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
