If I were going to convert to any religion I would probably choose Catholicism because it at least has female saints and the Virgin Mary. Margaret Atwood
The conversion of a savage to Christianity is the conversion of Christianity to savagery. George Bernard Shaw
Youth is a religion from which one always ends up being converted. Andre Malraux
You have not converted a man because you have silenced him. John Morley
Conversion for me was not a Damascus Road experience. I slowly moved into an intellectual acceptance of what my intuition had always known. Madeleine L’Engle
The great danger of conversion in all ages has been that when the religion of the high mind is offered to the lower mind, the lower mind, feeling its fascination without understanding it, and being incapable of rising to it, drags it down to its level by degrading it. George Bernard Shaw
To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Palaces and pyramids are reared by laying one brick, or block, at a time; and the kingdom of Christ is enlarged by individual conversions. James H Aughey
Conversion by the Holy Spirit is a spiritual illumination of the soul. God’s grace lights up the dark heart. And when a man has once been kindled at the cross of Christ, he is bound to shine. Theodore Ledyard Cuyler
Conversion is not, as some suppose, a violent opening of the heart by grace, in which will, reason and judgement are all ignored or crushed. The season is not blinded, but enlightened; and the whole man is made to act with a glorious liberty which it never knew till it fell under the restraints of grace. Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Conversion is not implanting eyes, for they exist already; but giving them a right direction, which they have not. Plato
Surely conversion is a matter between man and his Maker who alone knows his creatures’ hearts. A conversion without a clean heart is, in my opinion, a denial of God and Religion. Conversion without cleanliness of heart can only be a matter of sorrow, not joy, to a godly person. Mahatma Gandhi
