Famous quotes containing the words spiritual and/or song:
“The lion shall never lie down with the lamb. The lion eternally shall devour the lamb, the lamb eternally shall be devoured. Man knows the great consummation in the flesh, the sensual ecstasy, and that is eternal. Also the spiritual ecstasy of unanimity, that is eternal. But the two are separate and never to be confused.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“My beloved is like a roe or a young hart:”
—Bible: Hebrew The Song of Solomon (l. II, 9)
