Teaching Staff

Famous quotes containing the words teaching and/or staff:

    What is this? A new teaching -with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 1:27.

    Of Jesus after he had exorcized an unclean spirit.

    For the first fourteen years for a rod they do whine,
    For the next as a pearl in the world they do shine,
    For the next trim beauty beginneth to swerve,
    For the next matrons or drudges they serve,
    For the next doth crave a staff for a stay,
    For the next a bier to fetch them away.
    Thomas Tusser (c. 1520–1580)
