Famous quotes containing the words luke and/or short:
“Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you may not come into the time of trial.”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 22:46.
“Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
