Veiled Prophet

Famous quotes containing the words veiled and/or prophet:

    The days are ever divine as to the first Aryans. They are of the least pretension and of the greatest capacity of anything that exists. They come and go like muffled and veiled figures, sent from a distant friendly party; but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High; for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways,
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 1:76.

    Zechariah speaking about his son.
