Supreme Sacred Congregation

Famous quotes containing the words supreme, sacred and/or congregation:

    “The supreme satisfaction is to be able to despise one’s neighbour and this fact goes far to account for religious intolerance. It is evidently consoling to reflect that the people next door are headed for hell.”
    —Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

    “‘Tis chastity, my brother, chastity.
    She that has that is clad in complete steel,
    And like a quivered nymph with arrows keen
    May trace huge forests and unharbored heaths,
    Infamous hills and sandy perilous wilds,
    Where, through the sacred rays of chastity,
    No savage fierce, bandit, or mountaineer
    Will dare to soil her virgin purity.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “re-enact at the vestry-glass
    Each pulpit gesture in deft dumb-show
    That had moved the congregation so.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
