Famous quotes containing the words voice of the, voice of and/or voice:

    There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at
    rest.
    There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the
    oppressor.
    Bible: Hebrew Job (l. III, 17–18)

    Everything that is right or natural pleads for separation. The blood of the slain, the weeping voice of nature cries, ‘tis time to part.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)

    Cotton Mather died when I was a boy. The books
    He read, all day, all night and all the nights,
    Had got him nowhere. There was always the doubt,
    That made him preach the louder, long for a church
    In which his voice would roll its cadences,
    After the sermon, to quiet that mouse in the wall.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
