Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:

    “Before abstraction everything is one, but one like chaos; after abstraction everything is united again, but this union is a free binding of autonomous, self-determined beings. Out of a mob a society has developed, chaos has been transformed into a manifold world.”
    —Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)

    “Rev. J.D. Liddell: The Kingdom of God is not a democracy. The Lord never seeks re- election. There’s no discussion. No deliberation. No referenda as to which road to take. There’s one right, one wrong. One absolute ruler.
    Sandy: A dictator, you mean.
    Rev. J.D. Liddell: Aye, but a benign, loving dictator.”
    —Colin Welland (b. 1934)
