Famous quotes containing the words friendly and/or persuasion:

    “As he watched from windows in the failing light
    For his world that was always just out of sight
    Where weakness was part of the ordinary landscape
    And the friendly road knew his footstep, his footstep.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “To be inspired is to be moved in an extraordinary manner by the power or Spirit of God to act, speak, or think what is holy, just and true; [Enthusiasm is] A Full, but false persuasion in a man that he is inspired.”
    —Henry More (1614–1687)
