Famous quotes containing the words phoenix and/or resurrection:
“Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion’s paws,
And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;
Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger’s jaws,
And burn the long-liv’d phoenix in her blood;
Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleet’st,
And do what’er thou wilt, swift-footed Time,
To the wide world and all her fading sweets;”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.”
—Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Matthew, 22:30.
