Religion Quotes
-
Who knows the origin of religion? Certainly not the one who believes in it. Understanding and belief are quite antagonistic. The man who understands religion does not believe in it, the man who believes in it does not understand it.
Chapman Cohen
-
Those to whom his word was revealed were always alone in some remote place, like Moses. There wasn't anyone else around when Mohammed got the word either. Mormon Joseph Smith and Christian Scientist, Mary Baker Eddy, had exclusive audiences with God. We have to trust them as reporters--and you know how reporters are. They'll do anything for a story.
Andy Rooney
-
This is true religion, to approve what God approves, to hate what he hates, and to delight in what delights him.
Charles Hodge
-
The basis of your religion is injustice. The Son of God the pure, the immaculate, the innocent, is sacrificed for the guilty. This proves his heroism, but no more does away with man's sin than a school boy's volunteering to be flogged for another would exculpate a dunce from negligence.
Lord Byron
-
I am an Anglo-Catholic in religion, a classicist in literature and a royalist in politics.
T. S. Eliot
-
We're all sick of holy wars and bloodshed because religion is supposed to give us life and a better life and is supposed to bring out our best self. When it results in mass destruction and hatred and anxiety, it's the antithesis I think of what religion was designed to do.
Vera Farmiga
-
I played pretty darn competitive-level hockey. Then the good old knee injury. Obviously, it's a blessing in disguise, but growing up Canadian, that's our religion, that's our football.
Taylor Kitsch
-
Everyone's conscience in religion is between God and themselves, and it belongs to none other.
Margaret Cavendish
-
A man will do more for his stubbornness than for his religion or his country.
E. W. Howe
-
Even as a tree has a single trunk, but many branches and leaves, there is one religion but any number of faiths.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
Being a Southerner, I'm interested in sex, violence, religion and all the things that make life interesting.
Karin Slaughter
-
I've always hated religion. It's the most guilt-ridden, horrible thing. 'My God is better than yours, and I'm going to fight you and kill you because of your religion.' I think it's just a sick idea. You know how people are color-blind when it comes to other people - I mean, hopefully they are. Well, I'm religious-blind.
Linda McCartney
