The first ideas of religion arose, not from contemplation of the works of nature, but from a concern with regard to the events of life.
— David Hume
Next Quote
In Philosophy, the contemplations of man do either penetrate unto God, or are circumferred to Nature, or are reflected and reverted upon himself. Out of which several inquiries there do arise three knowledges, Divine Philosophy, Natural Philosophy, and Human Philosophy or Humanity. For all things are marked and stamped with this triple character of the power of God, the difference of Nature and the use of Man.
— Francis Bacon
