marginal note in Moncure D. Conway's Sacred Anthology

Eredeti: We must respect other religions, even as we respect our own. Mere tolerance thereof is not enough.
Eredeti: A religion that takes no account of practical affairs and does not help to solve them is no religion.
„Milyen könnyű, ha vereséget szenvedett az ember. Nem is képzeltem, hogy ilyen könnyű dolog.”

Az öreg halász és a tenger
Eredeti: Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion — human religion — but any number of faiths.
