Cohen

Famous quotes containing the word cohen:

    History is a needle
    for putting men asleep
    anointed with the poison
    Of all they want to keep.
    —Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    Israel, and you who call yourself Israel, the Church that calls itself Israel, and the revolt that calls itself Israel, and every nation chosen to be a nation—none of these lands is yours, all of you are thieves of holiness, all of you at war with Mercy.
    —Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    Children of the middle years do not do their learning unaffected by attendant feelings of interest, boredom, success, failure, chagrin, joy, humiliation, pleasure, distress and delight. They are whole children responding in a total way, and what they feel is a constant factor that can be constructive or destructive in any learning situation.
    —Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
