Answered Prayers

Famous quotes containing the words answered and/or prayers:

“We were as twinned lambs that did frisk i’ the sun
And bleat the one at th’ other. What we changed
Was innocence for innocence; we knew not
The doctrine of ill-doing, nor dreamed
That any did. Had we pursued that life,
And our weak spirits ne’er been higher reared
With stronger blood, we should have answered heaven
Boldly “Not guilty,” the imposition cleared
Hereditary ours.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“May they rest in peace.
[Requiescant in pace.]”
—Missal, The. Order of Mass for the Dead.

The Missal is book of prayers and rites used to celebrate the Roman Catholic mass during the year.
