Holiness

Famous quotes containing the word holiness:

“It is not because angels are holier than men or devils that makes them angels, but because they do not expect holiness from one another, but from God only.”

“In our era, the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.”

“Say next to holiness is the will thereto,
And next to love is the desire for love,
The desire for its celestial ease in the heart,
Which nothing can frustrate, that most secure,
Unlike love in possession of that which was
To be possessed and is.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
