Hearing Mass is the ceremony I most favor during my travels. Church is the only place where someone speaks to me and I do not have to answer back.
Charles de Gaulle

My father started me singing in church.
DeForest Kelley

Nobody sees the obvious, nobody observes the ordinary. There are more miracles in a square yard of earth than in all the fables of the Church.
Robert Anton Wilson

I like the aesthetics of the Church.
Andres Serrano

I see no faults in the Church, and therefore let me be resurrected with the Saints, whether I ascend to heaven or descend to hell, or go to any other place. And if we go to hell, we will turn the devils out of doors and make a heaven of it.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

If you will stay with the majority of the Twelve Apostles, and the records of the Church, you will never be led astray.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Under pressure, people admit to murder, setting fire to the village church or robbing a bank, but never to being bores.
Elsa Maxwell

The state and the church seldom approve of anything I do. I don't need their approval. I don't aspire to the heterosexual nuclear family model.
Jasmine Guy

I am drawn to Christ but I have real problems with the Catholic Church.
Andres Serrano

It is an absolutely unique success of the church community to have introduced such an epoch-making change, in just a few years, without having a serious division.
Hans Kung

And a third thing is the understanding of the Church as a community, a communion which is just a hierarchy but the people of God, whose servants are the priests and bishops.
Hans Kung

As a former Catholic, and as someone who even today is not opposed to being called a Christian, I felt I had every right to use the symbols of the Church and resented being told not to.
Andres Serrano

I like going to Church for aesthetic reasons, rather than spiritual ones.
Andres Serrano

I like Church furniture.
Andres Serrano

Unfortunately, the Church's position on most contemporary issues makes it hard to take them seriously.
Andres Serrano

Ultimately Warhol's private moral reference was to the supreme kitsch of the Catholic church.
Allen Ginsberg

Art, that great undogmatized church.
Ellen Key

It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.
Vance Havner

Too many church services start at eleven sharp and end at twelve dull.
Vance Havner

In the West there has always been the attempt to try make the religious building, whether it's a Medieval or Renaissance church, an eternal object for the celebration of God. The material chosen, such as stone, brick, or concrete, is meant to eternally preserve what is inside.
