"Churchgoers are like coals in a fire. When they cling together, they keep the flame aglow; when they separate, they die out."

Graham, Billy on churches

"It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there."

"It's about time we quit playing church in these services that start at eleven o clock sharp and end at twelve o clock dull."

Havner, Vance on churches

Huxley, Aldous on churches   

"The Church has always been willing to swap off treasures in heaven for cash down."

Ingersoll, Robert Green on churches   

"What I am defending is the real rights of women. A woman should have the right to be in the home as a wife and mother."

Schlafly, Phyllis on equality   

"To be completely woman you need a master, and in him a compass for your life. You need a man you can look up to and respect. If you dethrone him it's no wonder that you are discontented, and discontented women are not loved for long."

Chanel, Coco on women

"The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence. He's got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won't be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That's all there is to it."

Nietzsche, Friedrich on men

"A woman simply is, but a man must become. Masculinity is risky and elusive. It is achieved by a revolt from woman, and it is confirmed only by other men. Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all."

Paglia, Camille on men   

"There are three classes of men; lovers of wisdom, lovers of honor, and lovers of gain."

"Unlike femininity, relaxed masculinity is at bottom empty, a limp nullity. While the female body is full of internal potentiality, the male is internally barren. Manhood at the most basic level can be validated and expressed only in action."

Addison, Joseph on women

Thomson, James on churches   

"One hundred religious persons knit into a unity by careful organizations do not constitute a church any more than eleven dead men make a football team. The first requisite is life, always."

Tozer, A. W. on churches

Unknown, Source on churches   

"She say, Celie, tell the truth, have you ever found God in church? I never did. I just found a bunch of folks hoping for him to show. Any God I ever felt in church I brought in with me. And I think all the other folks did too. They come to church to share God, not find God."
