Stealing Heaven

Famous quotes containing the words stealing and/or heaven:

    While he hears in every spring
    How the birds do chirp and sing:
    Or before the hounds in cry
    See the hare go stealing by:
    Or along the shallow brook,
    Angling with a baited hook,
    See the fishes leap and play
    In a blessed sunny day:
    Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)

    The married state, with and without the affection suitable to it, is the completest image of heaven and hell we are capable of receiving in this life.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)
