Famous quotes containing the words christ and/or satan:

    Then to the third—a face nor child nor old, very calm,
    as of beautiful yellow-white ivory,
    Young man I think I know you—I think this face is the
    face of the Christ himself,
    Dead and divine and brother of all, and here again he lies.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    None can re-enter there—
    No thief so politic,
    No Satan with a royal trick
    Steal in by window, chink, or hole,
    To bind or unbind, add what lacked,
    Insert a leaf, or forge a name,
    New-face or finish what is packed,
    Alter or mend eternal fact.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
