Famous quotes containing the words samuel, murray and/or robinson:

    Speak, LORD, for your servant is listening.
    Bible: Hebrew, 1 Samuel 3:9.

    Because you live, O Christ,
    the spirit bird of hope is freed for flying,
    our cages of despair no longer keep us closed and life-denying.
    The stone has rolled away and death cannot imprison!
    O sing this Easter Day, for Jesus Christ has risen!
    —Shirley Erena Murray (20th century)

    A thousand golden sheaves were lying there,
    Shining and still, but not for long to stay—
    As if a thousand girls with golden hair
    Might rise from where they slept and go away.
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
