Peaceable Kingdom

Famous quotes containing the words peaceable and/or kingdom:

    The most peaceable way for you, if you do take a thief, is to let him show himself what he is and steal out of your company.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ...I do deeply deplore, of the sake of the cause, the prevalent notion, that the clergy must be had, either by persuasion or by bribery. They will not need persuasion or bribery, if their hearts are with us; if they are not, we are better without them. It is idle to suppose that the kingdom of heaven cannot come on earth, without their cooperation.
    Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
