Famous quotes containing the word pray:
“I pray we are still a young and courageous nation, that we have not grown so old and so fat and so prosperous that all we can think about is to sit back with our arms around our money bags. If we choose to do that I have no doubt that the smoldering fires will burst into flame and consume us—dollars and all.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“Let us pray for the whole state of Christ’s Church Militant here in earth.”

And I pray that I may forget
These matters that with myself I too much discuss
Too much explain”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
