Famous quotes containing the words god and/or appears:
“I close my eyes over the steaming
tea and see God opening His teeth.
“Oh,” He says.
I see the child in me writing, “Oh.”
Oh, my dear, not why.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“When we consider what, to use the words of the catechism, is the chief end of man, and what are the true necessaries and means of life, it appears as if men had deliberately chosen the common mode of living because they preferred it to any other. Yet they honestly think there is no choice left. But alert and healthy natures remember that the sun rose clear. It is never too late to give up our prejudices.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
