Famous quotes containing the word chapel:

    “The religion of England is part of good-breeding. When you see on the continent the well-dressed Englishman come into his ambassador’s chapel and put his face for silent prayer into his smooth-brushed hat, you cannot help feeling how much national pride prays with him, and the religion of a gentleman.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “One thing’s certain. With a name like Abrahams, he won’t be in the chapel choir, now will he?”
    —Colin Welland (b. 1934)

    “I went to the Garden of Love,
    And saw what I never had seen:
    A Chapel was built in the midst,
    Where I used to play on the green.
    And the gates of this Chapel were shut,
    And ‘Thou shalt not’ writ over the door;”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)
