Famous quotes containing the words friends and/or churches:
“All earthly things is but vanity:
Beauty, Strength, and Discretion do man forsake,
Foolish friends and kinsmen, that fair spake—
All fleeth save Good Deeds, and that am I.”
—Unknown. Everyman (l. 870–873)
“Good churches are not built by bad men; at least, there must be probity and enthusiasm somewhere in the society. These minsters were neither built nor filled by atheists.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
