Famous quotes containing the word halo:

    Most books belong to the house and street only, and in the fields their leaves feel very thin. They are bare and obvious, and have no halo nor haze about them. Nature lies far and fair behind them all. But this, as it proceeds from, so it addresses, what is deepest and most abiding in man. It belongs to the noontide of the day, the midsummer of the year, and after the snows have melted, and the waters evaporated in the spring, still its truth speaks freshly to our experience.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There is a touch of divinity even in brutes, and a special halo about a horse, that should forever exempt him from indignities.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Fame now wears the halo that once crowned holiness.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
