Famous quotes containing the words roman and/or catholic:

    “Uprises there
    A mother’s form upon my ken,
    Guiding my infant steps, as when
    We walked that ancient, thoroughfare,
    The Roman Road.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “You do not mean by mystery what a Catholic does. You mean an interesting uncertainty: the uncertainty ceasing interest ceases also.... But a Catholic by mystery means an incomprehensible certainty: without certainty, without formulation there is no interest;... the clearer the formulation the greater the interest.”
    —Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
