Harriet Beecher Stowe Quotes:
Ocupation: Author
Life: June 14, 1811 - July 1, 1896
Birthday: June 14
Death: July 1
Religion! Is what you hear at church religion? Is that which can bend and turn, and descend and ascend, to fit every crooked phase of selfish, worldly society, religion? Is that religion which is less scrupulous, less generous, less just, less considerate for man, than even my own ungodly, worldly, blinded nature? No! When I look for religion, I must look for something above me, and not something beneath.
