Famous quotes containing the words god and/or damn:
“Mystics and birds do not carry their food with them.
Those who have full faith in God are always taken care of.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
“The indications are that swearing preceded the development of cursing. That is, expletives, maledictions, exclamations, and imprecations of the immediately explosive or vituperative kind preceded the speechmaking and later rituals involved in the deliberate apportioning of the fate of an enemy. Swearing of the former variety is from the lips only, but the latter is from the heart. Damn it! is not that same as Damn you!”
—Ashley Montagu (b. 1905)
