Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    “The proper office of religion is to regulate the heart of men, humanize their conduct, infuse the spirit of temperance, order, and obedience; and as its operation is silent, and only enforces the motives of morality and justice, it is in danger of being overlooked, and confounded with these other motives.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)

    “Religion is a great force: the only real motive force in the world; but what you fellows don’t understand is that you must get at a man through his own religion and not through yours.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “As soon as beauty is sought, not from religion and love, but for pleasure, it degrades the seeker.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
