Supreme Bishop

Famous quotes containing the words supreme and/or bishop:

    Alcohol doesn’t console, it doesn’t fill up anyone’s psychological gaps, all it replaces is the lack of God. It doesn’t comfort man. On the contrary, it encourages him in his folly, it transports him to the supreme regions where he is master of his own destiny.
    Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)

    O falling fire and piercing cry
    and panic, and a weak mailed fist
    clenched ignorant against the sky!
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
