Contemporary Christian

Famous quotes containing the words contemporary and/or christian:

    That nameless and infinitely delicate aroma of inexpressible tenderness and attentiveness which, in every refined and honorable attachment, is contemporary with the courtship, and precedes the final banns and the rite; but which, like the bouquet of the costliest German wines, too often evaporates upon pouring love out to drink, in the disenchanting glasses of the matrimonial days and nights.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    There is not one Christian rule for solicitors and another for saints. Their hearts are alike; and their way of salvation is along the same road.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
