Famous quotes containing the words book and/or commandments:
“A book full of brilliance imparts some of it even to its opponents.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Not for nothing does it say in the Commandments ‘Thou shalt not make unto thee any image’ ... Every image is a sin.... When you love someone you leave every possibility open to them, and in spite of all the memories of the past you are ready to be surprised, again and again surprised, at how different they are, how various, not a finished image.”
—Max Frisch (1911–1991)
