Final Judgment

Famous quotes containing the words final judgment, final and/or judgment:

    Americans are notorious for looking to their children for approval. How our children turn out and what they think of us has become the “final judgment” on our lives. . . . We imagine that the rising generation is rendering history’s verdict on us. We may resent children simply because we expect a harsh judgment from them.
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    Always and last, before the final ring
    When all the fireworks blare, begins
    A tom-tom scrimmage with a somewhere violin,
    Some cheapest echo of them all—begins.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be answerable for the body and blood of the Lord. Examine yourselves, and only then eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For all who eat and drink without discerning the body, eat and drink judgment against themselves.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 11:27-29.
