Famous quotes containing the words protection, level and/or scheme:
“Ah! how much a mother learns from her child!

Then alone can her character expand in the fulfillment of all life’s duties and the enjoyment of all its pleasures.”

“Alle fresh the level pasture lay,
And not a shadowe mote by seene,
Save where full fyve good miles away
The steeple towered from out the greene,”
—Jean Ingelow (1820–1897)
“We are all bound to the throne of the Supreme Being by a flexible chain which restrains without enslaving us. The most wonderful aspect of the universal scheme of things is the action of free beings under divine guidance.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
