Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or figure:

    “We are not a religious people, but we are a nation of politicians. We do not care for the Bible, but we do care for the newspaper. At any meeting of politicians ... how impertinent it would be to quote from the Bible! how pertinent to quote from a newspaper or from the Constitution!”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Between ourselves and our real natures we interpose that wax figure of idealizations and selections which we call our character.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
