RELIGION · VERIFIED QUOTE
Samuel Smiles Quote
“  ​ With many people, religion is merely a matter of words. So far as words go we do what we think right. But the words rarely lead to action, thought, and conduct, or to purity, goodness, and honesty. There is too much playing at religion, and too little of enthusiastic, hard work.”
