Selected quotes by Montesquieu
How admirable is that religion which, while it seems to have in view only the felicity of another world, is at the same time the highest happiness of this.
Religion gives to virtue the sweetest hopes, to unrepenting vice just alarms, to true repentance the most powerful consolations; but she endeavors above all things to inspire in men love, meekness, and piety.
