Twofold Rise

Famous quotes containing the words twofold and/or rise:

    “Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragonfly
    Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky—
    So this winged hour is dropped to us from above.
    Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower,
    This close-companioned inarticulate hour
    When twofold silence was the song of love.”
    —Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)

    “...for [God] makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the righteous and on the unrighteous.”
