Tents Sleeping

Famous quotes containing the words tents and/or sleeping:

    “Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
    For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
    For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory:”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm LXXXIV (l. LXXXIV, 9–11)

    “A lioness, with udders all drawn dry,
    Lay couching, head on ground, with cat-like watch
    When that the sleeping man should stir; for ‘tis
    The royal disposition of that beast
    To prey on nothing that doth seem as dead.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
