Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or heart:
“Now men and women are separate and unequal. We should be hand in hand; in fact, we should have our arms around each other.”
—Cloris Leachman (b. 1930)
“Philosophic argument, especially that drawn from the vastness of the universe, in comparison with the apparent insignificance of this globe, has sometimes shaken my reason for the faith that is in me; but my heart has always assured and reassured me that the gospel of Jesus Christ must be Divine Reality. The Sermon on the Mount cannot be a mere human production. This belief enters into the very depth of my conscience. The whole history of man proves it.”
—Daniel Webster (1782–1852)
