Additional quotes by Percy Bysshe Shelley

The being called God...bears every mark of a veil woven by philosophical conceit, to hide the ignorance of philosophers even from themselves. They borrow the threads of its texture from the anthropomorphism of the vulgar.

And with glorious triumph, they Rode through England proud and gay, Drunk as with intoxication Of the wine of desolation.

A God made by man undoubtedly has need of man to make himself known to man.
