Celestial Motions

Famous quotes containing the words celestial and/or motions:

    Say next to holiness is the will thereto,
    And next to love is the desire for love,
    The desire for its celestial ease in the heart,
    Which nothing can frustrate, that most secure,
    Unlike love in possession of that which was
    To be possessed and is.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    A man whose blood
    Is very snow-broth; one who never feels
    The wanton stings and motions of the sense,
    But doth rebate and blunt his natural edge
    With profits of the mind, study, and fast.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
