Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “Every religion is good that teaches man to be good; and I know of none that instructs him to be bad.”
    —Thomas Paine (1737–1809)

    “Both Socrates and Jesus were outstanding teachers; both of them urged and practiced great simplicity of life; both were regarded as traitors to the religion of their community; neither of them wrote anything; both of them were executed; and both have become the subject of traditions that are difficult or impossible to harmonize.”
    —Jaroslav Pelikan (b. 1932)

    “There’s no reason to bring religion into it. I think we ought to have as great a regard for religion as we can, so as to keep it out of as many things as possible.”
    —Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
