Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or colum:
“We enter church, and we have to say, “We have erred and strayed from Thy ways like lost sheep,” when what we want to say is, “Why are we made to err and stray like lost sheep?” Then we have to sing, “My soul doth magnify the Lord,” when what we want to sing is “O that my soul could find some Lord that it could magnify!””
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
“O farmer, strong farmer!
You can spend at the fair,
But your face you must turn
To your crops and your care;”
—Padraic Colum (1881–1972)
