Set/religion

Famous quotes containing the words set and/or religion:

    Speak of me as I am. Nothing extenuate,
    Nor set down aught in malice.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
