- Quotes by Pablo Neruda
“Poetry is a deep inner calling in man; from it came liturgy, the psalms, and also the content of religions”. - Quotes by Michael de Montaigne
“Man cannot make a worm, yet he will make gods by the dozen”. - Quotes by John Milton
“O welcome, pure-eyed Faith, white-handed Hope, Thou hovering angel girt with golden wings. Avenge, O Lord, thy slaughtered Saints, whose bones, Lie scattered on the Alpine mountains cold; Ev’n them who kept thy truth so pure of old, When all our Fathers worshipped Srocks and Stones. God doth not need, Eitherman’s work or His own gifts; who best, Bear His mild yoke, they serve Him best: His state, Is kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed, And post o’er Land and Ocean without rest: They also serve who only stand and wait. New Presbyter is but old Priest writ large. What in me is dark, Illumine, what is low raise and support; That to the highth of this great argumen, I may assert eternal Providence, And justify the ways of God to men. The mind is its own place, and in itself, Can make a heav’n of hell, a hell of heav’n. Better to reign in hell, than serve in heav’n. Long is the way of God, And justifiable to men; Unless there be who think not God at all”.
