Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or cross:

    “You who love wild passions, flee the holy austerity of my pleasures. All here breathes of God, peace and truth.”
    —Jean Racine (1639–1699)

    “There is a mountain in the distant West
    That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
    Displays a cross of snow upon its side.
    Such is the cross I wear upon my breast
    These eighteen years, through all the changing scenes
    And seasons, changeless since the day she died.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
