Western Church Calendar

Famous quotes containing the words western, church and/or calendar:

    Westron wind, when will thou blow?
    The small rain down can rain.
    Christ, that my love were in my arms,
    And I in my bed again.
    —Unknown. Western Wind (l. 1–4)

    Seeing their children touched and seared and wounded by race prejudice is one of the heaviest crosses which colored women have to bear.
    —Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954)

    To divide one’s life by years is of course to tumble into a trap set by our own arithmetic. The calendar consents to carry on its dull wall-existence by the arbitrary timetables we have drawn up in consultation with those permanent commuters, Earth and Sun. But we, unlike trees, need grow no annual rings.
    Clifton Fadiman (b. 1904)
