Famous quotes containing the words works and/or merrill:
“Audible prayer can never do the works of spiritual understanding, which regenerates; but silent prayer, watchfulness, and devout obedience enable us to follow Jesus’ example. Long prayers, superstition, and creeds clip the strong pinions of love, and clothe religion in human forms. Whatever materializes worship hinders man’s spiritual growth and keeps him from demonstrating his power over error.”
—Mary Baker Eddy (1821–1910)
“Tonight they have stepped out onto the gravel.
The party is over. It’s the fall
Of 1931. They love each other still.”
—James Merrill (b. 1926)
