Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or figures:

    “God from the mount of Sinai, whose grey top
    Shall tremble, he descending, will himself
    In thunder lightning and loud trumpets’ sound
    Ordain them laws; part such as appertain
    To civil justice, part religious rites
    Of sacrifice, informing them, by types
    And shadows, of that destined seed to bruise
    The serpent, by what means he shall achieve
    Mankind’s deliverance.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I’m not going to deny that you don’t now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand.”
    —Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
