Famous quotes containing the words day, saint and/or sects:
“We must cultivate our garden.
Furia to God one day in seven allots;
The other six to scandal she devotes.
Satan, by false devotion never flammed,
Bets six to one, that Furia will be damned.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
“The worst of madmen is a saint run mad.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
