With crosses, relics, crucifixes,
Beads, pictures, rosaries, and pixes,—
The tools of working our salvation
By mere mechanic operation.

Additional quotes by Samuel Butler

He made an instrument to know
If the moon shine at full or no.

Some have been beaten till they know
What wood a cudgel's of by th' blow;
Some kick'd until they can feel whether
A shoe be Spanish or neat's leather.

He that complies against his will.
Is of his own opinion still.
