Outer Gods

Famous quotes containing the words outer and/or gods:

    When human beings have been fascinated by the contemplation of their own hearts, the more intricate biological pattern of the female has become a model for the artist, the mystic, and the saint. When mankind turns instead to what can be done, altered, built, invented, in the outer world, all natural properties of men, animals, or metals become handicaps to be altered rather than clues to be followed.
    Margaret Mead (1901–1978)

    Live and let live, believe and let believe.
    ‘Twas said the lesser gods were only traits
    Of the one awful God. Just so the saints
    Are God’s white light refracted into colors.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
