Famous quotes containing the words mutual and/or aid:

    Then, anger
    was a crease in the brow
    and silence
    a catastrophe.
    Then, making up
    was a mutual smile
    and a glance
    a gift.
    Now, just look at this mess
    that you’ve made of that love.
    You grovel at my feet
    and I berate you
    and can’t let my anger go.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    At dawn of morn, and close of even,
    To lift your heart and hands to Heaven.
    In double beauty say your prayer:
    Our Father first, then Notre Pere.
    And, dearest child, along the day,
    In every thing you do and say,
    Obey and please my lord and lady,
    So God shall love and angels aid ye.
    Matthew Prior (1664–1721)
