Common Injury

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or injury:

    The hourly kindness, the day’s common speech,
    The habitual content of each with each
    When neither soul nor body has been crossed.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Men have come to speak of the revelation as somewhat long ago given and done, as if God were dead. The injury to faith throttles the preacher; and the goodliest of institutions becomes an uncertain and inarticulate voice.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
