Famous quotes containing the words birth and/or marriage:

    It must appear impossible, that theism could, from reasoning, have been the primary religion of human race, and have afterwards, by its corruption, given birth to polytheism and to all the various superstitions of the heathen world. Reason, when obvious, prevents these corruptions: When abstruse, it keeps the principles entirely from the knowledge of the vulgar, who are alone liable to corrupt any principle or opinion.

    David Hume (1711–1776)

    After the first couple of months, she and Charlie didn’t see much of each other except at breakfast. It was a marriage just like any other marriage.
    Orson Welles (1915–1985)
