Famous quotes containing the words highly and/or decorated:
“A good man, though he will value his own countrymen, yet will think as highly of the worthy men of every nation under the sun.”

“... it was religion that saved me. Our ugly church and parochial school provided me with my only aesthetic outlet, in the words of the Mass and the litanies and the old Latin hymns, in the Easter lilies around the altar, rosaries, ornamented prayer books, votive lamps, holy cards stamped in gold and decorated with flower wreaths and a saint’s picture.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
