Quote by Wendell Phillips

Difference of religion breeds more quarrels than difference of politics.

Difference of religion breeds more quarrels than difference

Summary

This quote suggests that the divisions created by religious differences often lead to more conflicts and disputes than differences in political beliefs. It implies that while political disagreements can still be contentious, the deep-seated nature of religious convictions can fuel even more intense disagreements, potentially resulting in a greater number of quarrels. This observation may indicate the deeply ingrained and emotional nature of religious beliefs that can sometimes contribute to heightened tensions and divisions among individuals and societies.

Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.
