Epigraph (Motto/Zitat) |
Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. The religion practised in England, in Spain, in France during these times - what is it? It is but a cloak to cover the lust for power, a cloak of hypocrisy to hide the truth. And, pity of pities, it is a cloak dyed scarlet with the blood of men who have dared to hold an opinion which differs from those of their masters. Fanatic fools, that in those twilight times, With wild religion cloaked the worst of crimes! -John Langhorne, 1735-1779
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another. Jonathan Swift, 1667-1745
They that approve a private opinion, call it opinion; but they that mislike it, heresy: and yet heresy signifies no more than private opinion. -Thomas Hobbes, 1588-1679 | |

Certain episodes are entertaining but the narrative pace is slow and the story is lacklustre on the most part. ( )
