Night Prayer

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or prayer:

“The starting point of the human and the end,
That in which space itself is contained, the gate
To the enclosure, day, the things illumined
By day, night and that which night illumines,
Night and its midnight-minting fragrances,
Night’s hymn of the rock, as in a vivid sleep.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“And prayer is more
Than an order of words, the conscious occupation
Of the praying mind, or the sound of the voice praying.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
