Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “A religion so cheerless, a philosophy so sorrowful, could never have succeeded with the masses of mankind if presented only as a system of metaphysics. Buddhism owed its success to its catholic spirit and its beautiful morality.”
    —W. Winwood Reade (1838–1875)

    “... the average Catholic perceives no connection between religion and morality, unless it is a question of someone else’s morality.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
