Quote by Edgar Quinet
What are all political and social institutions, but always a religion, which in realizing itself, becomes incarnate in the world?
Summary
This quote suggests that political and social institutions are essentially like religions that manifest themselves in the world. It implies that these institutions hold a significant influence over society, shape beliefs and values, and become a tangible manifestation of a collective faith or ideology. Just as religions take form through rituals, teachings, and symbols, political and social institutions likewise materialize through their practices, governing systems, and ideologies, ultimately becoming a guiding force for people's lives.
