“...I do deeply deplore, of the sake of the cause, the prevalent notion, that the clergy must be had, either by persuasion or by bribery. They will not need persuasion or bribery, if their hearts are with us; if they are not, we are better without them. It is idle to suppose that the kingdom of heaven cannot come on earth, without their cooperation.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
“Then people will come from east and west, from north and south, and will eat in the kingdom of God.”

—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Next time, to tarry,

And the Cycles wheel!”
