"I prayed for twenty years but received no answer until I prayed with my legs." ― Frederick Douglass Topic(s): Religion More From Frederick Douglass "At a time like this, scorching irony, not convincing argument, is needed." "It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men." "Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground." More In Religion "Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble."― Joseph Campbell "I’m not a big fan of romantic comedies, believe it or not."― Kate Hudson "Look at Islam in a rational manner and without demagoguery or emotion. It is the leading religion of the world with 1.5 billion followers."― Zbigniew Brzezinski
