Revealed Religion

Famous quotes containing the words revealed and/or religion:

“... we engage in politics because we don’t know anything. This is clearly revealed in the way we go about it. Our parties exist from a fear of theory. The voter fears that one idea can always be contradicted by another. Therefore the parties reciprocally defend themselves against the few old ideas they have inherited. They don’t live from what they promise, but from frustrating the promises of others. This is their silent community of interests.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)

“There is more religion in men’s science than there is science in their religion.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
