Famous quotes containing the words people, connected and/or priory:

    The public history of modern art is the story of conventional people not knowing what they are dealing with.
    Robert Motherwell (1915–1991)

    Religious fervor makes the devil a very real personage, and anything awe-inspiring or not easily understood is usually connected with him. Perhaps this explains why, not only in the Ozarks but all over the State, his name crops up so frequently.
    —Administration in the State of Miss, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Blessing turned to blasphemies,
    Holy deeds to despites.

    Sin is where our Lady sat,
    Heaven turned is to hell,
    Sathan sits where our Lord did sway,
    Walsingham, Oh farewell!
    —Unknown. A Lament for the Priory of Walsingham (l. 39–44)
