Browse Quotations about Worship

I daresay anything can be made holy by being sincerely worshipped.
It is only when men begin to worship that they begin to grow.
Reverence is the highest quality of man's nature; and that individual, or nation, which has it slightly developed, is so far unfortunate. It is a strong spiritual instinct, and seeks to form channels for itself where none exists; thus Americans, in the dearth of other objects to worship, fall to worshiping themselves.
The various modes of worship, which prevailed in the Roman world, were all considered by the people as equally true; by the philosopher as equally false; and by the magistrate as equally useful.
Try to treat with equal love all the people with whom you have relations. Thus the abyss between 'myself' and 'yourself' will be filled in, which is the goal of all religious worship.
When we really worship anything, we love not only its clearness but its obscurity. We exult in its very invisibility.
Worship is transcendent wonder.
