Taylor

Famous quotes containing the word taylor:

    Ah! from the soul itself must issue forth
    A light, a glory, a fair luminous cloud
    Enveloping the Earth.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Oh, what a might is this whose single frown
    Doth shake the world as it would shake it down?
    Which all from nothing fet, from nothing all;
    Hath all on nothing set, lets nothing fall.
    Gave all to nothing man indeed, whereby
    Through nothing man all might Him glorify.
    —Edward Taylor (1645–1729)

    Adultery itself in its principle is many times nothing but a curious inquisition after, and envy of another man’s enclosed pleasures: and there have been many who refused fairer objects that they might ravish an enclosed woman from her retirement and single possessor.
    —Jeremy Taylor (1613–1667)
