Famous quotes containing the word saints:
“Up the Rebels, To Hell with the Pope,
And God Saveas you preferthe King or Ireland.
The land of scholars and saints:
Scholars and saints my eye, the land of ambush,
Purblind manifestoes, never-ending complaints,”

“If man were happy, he would be the more so, the less he was diverted, like the saints and God.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
“I know were not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we dont know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we dont care that we dont.”
—Dylan Thomas (19141953)
