Famous quotes containing the words mentioned and/or deuteronomy:

    If the religious spirit be ever mentioned in any historical narration, we are sure to meet afterwards with a detail of the miseries which attend it. And no period of time can be happier or more prosperous, than those in which it is never regarded or heard of.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    As a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee.
    —Bible: Hebrew Deuteronomy 8:5.
