Famous quotes containing the words christian, saints and/or names:
“For your God of dream or devil
You will answer, not to me.
Talk about the pews and steeples
And the Cash that goes therewith!
But the souls of Christian peoples . . .
Chuck it, Smith!”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (18741936)
“All saints revile her, and all sober men
Ruled by the God Apollos golden mean”
—Robert Graves (18951985)
“If marriages were made by putting all the mens names into one sack and the womens names into another, and having them taken out by a blindfolded child like lottery numbers, there would be just as high a percentage of happy marriages as we have here in England.... If you can tell me of any trustworthy method of selecting a wife, I shall be happy to make use of it.”
—George Bernard Shaw (18561950)
