Famous quotes containing the words matthew and/or sweet:

    They be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
    —Bible: New Testament Matthew 15:14.

    I confess what chiefly interests me, in the annals of that war, is the grandeur of spirit exhibited by a few of the Indian chiefs. A nameless Wampanoag who was put to death by the Mohicans, after cruel tortures, was asked by his butchers, during the torture, how he liked the war?—he said, “he found it as sweet as sugar was to Englishmen.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
