Anna Sewell Frasi e Citazioni

Questa traduzione è in attesa di revisione. È corretto?

“Non c'è religione senza amore,
e le persone possono parlare tanto quanto
a loro piace della loro religione, ma
se non insegna loro ad essere buoni
e gentile con l'uomo e la bestia,
è tutto un falso.”

Anna Sewell

“Non esiste religione senza amore. La gente può dire tutto quello che vuole sulla propria religione, ma se non ne ricava un insegnamento che la porti a essere buona e ad aprire il proprio animo a tutte le creature, allora è soltanto una truffa.”

Anna Sewell
