Molière on religion

A learned fool is more foolish than an ignorant one.

Those whose conduct gives room for talk
Are always the first to attack their neighbors.

All that is not prose is verse; and all that is not verse is prose.

The Bible is not my book, and Christianity is not my religion. I could never give assent to the long, complicated statements of Christian dogma.

Abraham Lincoln1809–1865
