Quotes about Sacrilegious

Richard Holbrooke

I never heard of such a vile, profane man.

Iran

The satellite dish is against the honorable Prophet [Mohammed]

Jean-Marie Le Pen

I have said, and I repeat, at the risk of appearing sacrilegious, that the gas chambers are a detail of the history of the Second World War.

John Piper

James says, "You desire and do not have; so you kill" (Jas. 4:2). We kill marriages and we kill unborn babies because they cut across our desires; they stand in the way of our unencumbered self-enhancement. And we live in a culture where self-enhancement and self-advancement is god. And if self-enhancement is god, then the One who is at work in the womb shaping a person in His own image is not God and the assault on His work is not sacrilegious, but obedience to the god of self.

Rickey Medlocke

We looked at the Allman Brothers as the fathers of what was to be called Southern rock. In our book, if you didn't like the Allman Brothers, you were sacrilegious.

Andrew Bird

I don't get particularly precious about things like this, though. Like the record company said, "We need a radio edit that delivers the hook" - I don't even know what they consider the hook in that song ["Oh No"] - "that delivers the hook sooner." So I'm like, "Okay. I see that." And they were all walking on eggshells, like is this going to be sacrilegious to me or something, to mess with this art I've created? And I'm like, "Great. I get to tinker with it, I get to mess with my song some more."

Les Claypool

You can't watch 'Dr. Strangelove' with commercials. That would be sacrilegious.

Peter Stuyvesant

… blasphemous enemies of the name of Christ

The Governor opposed Jews being allowed into the colony at all, but was overruled by the Dutch West India Company. He feared that this would set a precedent and then Catholics and other “dissenters” would come to New York. He then prohibited them from worshipping as Jews {35223} but was again overruled. He was a very unpopular Governor who himself was a Calvinist fundamentalist having been the son of a Calvinist minister and studied for the ministry himself. The company set the standard of religious tolerance and enforced it. See {611104}. The governor predicted the consequence and the precedent did indeed allow Catholics to come to New York and both Jews and Catholics have been significant New York population groups ever since.

Sam Harris

Could there be any doubt that the Jews would seek to harm the Son of God again, knowing that his body was now readily accessible in the form of defenseless crackers?

Samuel Johnson

The wickedness of a loose or profane author is more atrocious than that of a giddy libertine or drunken ravisher, not only because it extends its effects wider, as a pestilence that taints the air is more destructive than poison infused in a draught, but because it is committed with cool deliberation.

Pius IX

These enemies of divine revelation extol human progress to the skies, and with rash and sacrilegious daring would have it introduced into the Catholic religion as if this religion were not the work of God but of man, or some kind of philosophical discovery susceptible of perfection by human efforts.

Maximilien Robespierre

Death is not "an eternal sleep!" Citizens! efface from the tomb that motto, graven by sacrilegious hands, which spreads over all nature a funereal crape, takes from oppressed innocence its support, and affronts the beneficent dispensation of death! Inscribe rather thereon these words: "Death is the commencement of immortality!"
