Quotes About Self-seeking

I don't like this war. I don't like the cold-blooded scheming at the beginning and the carnage at the end and the grumbling and the jealousies and the pettishness in the middle.

Religion becomes sinful when it begins to advocate the segregation of God, to forget that the true sanctuary has no walls.
