Famous quotes containing the words holy, ghost, catholic and/or church:
“All human life is here, but the Holy Ghost seems to be somewhere else.”
—Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)

Crouch in the nights beside the ghost of a fire, they try to
remember the sunlight,
Light has died out of their skies.”
—Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
“Carlyle is not a seer, but a brave looker-on and reviewer; not the most free and catholic observer of men and events, for they are likely to find him preoccupied, but unexpectedly free and catholic when they fall within the focus of his lens.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“He prayed more deeply for simple selflessness than he had ever prayed before—and, feeling an uprush of grace in the very intention, shed the night in his heart and called it light. And walking out of the little church he felt confirmed in not only the worth of his whispered prayer but in the realization, as well, that Christ had become man and not some bell-shaped Corinthian column with volutes for veins and a mandala of stone foliage for a heart.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
