Answered Prayers

Famous quotes containing the words answered and/or prayers:

    “I have answered three questions, and that is enough,”
    Said his father; “don’t give yourself airs!
    Do you think I can listen all day to such stuff?
    Be off, or I’ll kick you downstairs!”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The bells discuss the hour’s gradations,
    Dusty shelves hold prayers and proofs:
    Above, Chaldean constellations
    Sparkle over crowded roofs.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
