Famous quotes containing the word christianity:

    There are many definite methods, honest and dishonest, which make people rich; the only “instinct” I know of which does it is that instinct which theological Christianity crudely describes as “the sin of avarice.”
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    I believe that men are generally still a little afraid of the dark, though the witches are all hung, and Christianity and candles have been introduced.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
