Famous quotes containing the words answered and/or prayers:
““Yes,” I answered you last night,
“No,” this morning, Sir, I say.
Colours seen by candle-light,
Will not look the same by day.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
“Pleads he in earnest? Look upon his face.
His eyes do drop no tears, his prayers are in jest.
His words come from his mouth; ours from our breast.
He prays but faintly, and would be denied;
We pray with heart and soul, and all beside.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
