Barry Parish Church

Famous quotes containing the words barry, parish and/or church:

    But whether on the scaffold high,
    Or in the battle’s van,
    The fittest place where man can die
    Is where he dies for man.
    —Michael J. Barry (1817–1889)

    When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls, and the stars begin to flicker in the sky,
    —Mitchell Parish (1901–1993)

    The tavern will compare favorably with the church. The church is the place where prayers and sermons are delivered, but the tavern is where they are to take effect, and if the former are good, the latter cannot be bad.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
