Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or views:

    Our aversion to lying is commonly a secret ambition to make what we say considerable, and have every word received with a religious respect.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Taught from their infancy that beauty is woman’s sceptre, the mind shapes itself to the body, and, roaming round its gilt cage, only seeks to adorn its prison. Men have various employments and pursuits which engage their attention, and give a character to the opening mind; but women, confined to one, and having their thoughts constantly directed to the most insignificant part of themselves, seldom extend their views beyond the triumph of the hour.
    Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
