Famous quotes containing the words fear and/or god:
“As soon as men know that they can kill without fear of punishment or blame, they kill; or at least they encourage killers with approving smiles.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
“I had gone so long without loving
I hardly knew what I was thinking.
Where I hid my face, your touch, quick, merciful
Blindfolded me. A god breathed from my lips.
If that was illusion, I wanted it to last long;”
—James Merrill (b. 1926)
