Plutarch Quotes

Numa Forbade The Romans To Revere An Image Of God Which Had The Form Of Man Or Beast. Nor Was There Among Them In This Earlier Time Any Painted Or Graven Likeness Of Deity, 8 But While For The First Hundred And Seventy Years They Were Continually Building Temples And Establishing Sacred Shrines, They Made No Statues In Bodily Form For Them, Convinced That It Was Impious To Liken Higher Things To Lower, And That It Was Impossible To Apprehend Deity Except By The Intellect.
