Quotes by Ármin Vámbéry (?)

“Religion in modern society is only artificially kept together and upheld by the Church and by those Governments to whose social or private interest it is that it should flourish.”
― Ármin Vámbéry, Western culture in Eastern lands: a comparison of the methods adopted by England and Russia in the Middle East

“In vain does the disguised traveller inwardly rebel against the influences and impressions which are wearing away his real self. The impressions of the past lose more and more their hold on him until they fade away, leaving the traveller hopelessly struggling in the toils of his own fiction, and the rôle he had assumed soon becomes second nature with him.”
― Ármin Vámbéry, Arminius Vambery: His Life And Adventures
