Famous quotes containing the words iona and/or island:

    “Praise to Christ who feeds the hungry, frees the captive, finds the lost,
    Heals the sick, upsets religion, fearless both of fate and cost.
    Celebrate Christ’s constant presence—Friend and Stranger, Guest and Host.”
    —The Iona Community (founded 1938)

    “The shifting islands! who would not be willing that his house should be undermined by such a foe! The inhabitant of an island can tell what currents formed the land which he cultivates; and his earth is still being created or destroyed. There before his door, perchance, still empties the stream which brought down the material of his farm ages before, and is still bringing it down or washing it away,—the graceful, gentle robber!”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
