"Among politicians the esteem of religion is profitable; the principles of it are troublesome." ― Benjamin Whichcote Topic(s): Religion More In Religion "I keep telling myself to calm down, to take less of an interest in things and not to get so excited, but I still care a lot about liberty, freedom of speech and expression, and fairness in journalism."― Kate Adie "Religion, you can’t a handle on it, you just have to know or not know-people either believe or they don’t believe."― Dennis Potter "In the early days I had a very black-and-white view of everything. I think that’s kind of natural for anyone who’s just embraced Islam – or any religion – as a convert. It was important for me to duck out of the fast and furious life I’d been living as a pop star. I was in a different mood."― Cat Stevens
