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 true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
