Famous quotes containing the words anglican and/or communion:
“I was the rector’s son, born to the anglican order,
Banned for ever from the candles of the Irish poor;
The Chichesters knelt in marble at the end of a transept
With ruffs about their necks, their portion sure.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
“There is a communion of more than our bodies when bread is broken and wine drunk.”
