“The religious geniuses of all ages have been distinguished by this kind of religious feeling, which knows no dogma and no God conceived in man's image; so that there can be no church whose central teachings are based on it.

Looked at in this light, men like Democritus, Francis of Assisi, and Spinoza are closely akin to one another.”
