Quote DB :: Religion Search in this category Anti-Religion (29) Christianity (51) Sponsored Links Quote Author Rating Rate "When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad. That’s my religion." Abraham Lincoln "It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion." Albert Einstein "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind." Albert Einstein "To know what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty...this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true religiousness." Albert Einstein "Nobody can have the consolations of religion or philosophy unless he has first experienced their desolations." Aldous Huxley "The main business of religions is to purify, control, and restrain that excessive and exclusive taste for well-being which men acquire in times of equality." Alexis de Tocqueville "Though it is very important for man as an individual that his religion should be true, that is not the case for society. Society has nothing to fear or hope from another life; what is most important for it is not that all citizens profess the true religion but that they should profess religion." Alexis de Tocqueville "I think vital religion has always suffered when orthodoxy is more regarded than virtue. The scriptures assure me that at the last day we shall not be examined on what we thought but what we did." Benjamin Franklin "Of all bad men religious bad men are the worst." C.S. Lewis "Talk to me about the truth of religion and I'll listen gladly. Talk to me about the duty of religion and I'll listen submissively. But don't come talking to me about the consolations of religion or I shall suspect that you don't understand." C.S. Lewis "Regarding the debate about faith and works: It’s like asking which blade in a pair of scissors is most important." C.S. Lewis "If these holy places, things, and days cease to remind us, if they obliterate our awareness that all ground is holy and every bush (could we but perceive it) a Burning Bush, then the hallows begin to do harm. Hence both the necessity, and the perennial danger, of 'religion.'" C.S. Lewis "The gap between those who worship different gods is not so wide as the gap between those who worship and those who don't." C.S. Lewis "It is only when men begin to worship that they begin to grow." Calvin Coolidge "It is a fine thing to establish one's own religion in one's heart, not to be dependent on tradition and second-hand ideals. Life will seem to you, later, not a lesser, but a greater thing." D.H. Lawrence "If there is a God, atheism must seem to Him as less of an insult than religion." Edmond and Jules de Goncourt "Nothing is so fatal to religion as indifference." Edmund Burke "Religion is essentially the art and the theory of the remaking of man. Man is not a finished creation." Edmund Burke "Ethical religion can be real only to those who are engaged in ceaseless efforts at moral improvement. By moving upward we acquire faith in an upward movement, without limit." Felix Adler "If God has created us in His image, we have more than returned the compliment."
