💬 Quotations

This legal, and, as it should seem, injudicious profanation, so abhorrent to our stricter principles, was received with a faint murmur, by the easy nature of polytheism; but it was received as an institution, not of religion, but of policy.

Edward Gibbon, The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire
