Attain Salvation

Famous quotes containing the words attain and/or salvation:

    Night hangs upon mine eyes; my bones would rest,
    That have but labored to attain this hour.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I have no faith in our hypocritical, false, hysterical, uneducated and lazy intelligentsia when they suffer and complain: their oppression comes from within. I believe in individual people. I see salvation in discrete individuals, intellectuals and peasants, strewn hither and yon throughout Russia. They have the strength, although there are few of them.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
