Famous quotes containing the word purity:
“Man flows at once to God when the channel of purity is open. By turns our purity inspires and our impurity casts us down.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Kings were wont to honour philosophers; but if I had such I would honour them as angels that should have such purity in them that they would not seek when they are the second to be the first, and when they are third to be the second.”
—Elizabeth I (15331603)
“All sensuality is one, though it takes many forms; all purity is one. It is the same whether a man eat, or drink, or cohabit, or sleep sensually. They are but one appetite, and we only need to see a person do any one of these things to know how great a sensualist he is. The impure can neither stand nor sit with purity.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
