There is a faculty in man that will acknowledge the unseen. He may scout and scare religion from him; but if he does, superstition perches near.

About This Quote

No one should be allowed to scare religion from a person, and any attempt to do so should be thrown out. Even if a person is not religious, that person should still be allowed to believe what he or she chooses. We should respect each other’s differences and beliefs as we should respect those around us.
