Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or williamson:

    If the twentieth century is to be better than the nineteenth, it will be because there are among us men who walk in Priestley’s footsteps....To all eternity, the sum of truth and right will have been increased by their means; to all eternity, falsehoods and injustice will be the weaker because they have lived.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    What do you do for your living?
    Are you forgiving, giving shelter?
    Follow your heart; love will find you;
    truth will unbind you;
    Sing out a song of the soul.
    —Cris Williamson (20th century)
