Angels

Famous quotes containing the word angels:

    Though seas and land be ‘twixt us both,
    Our faith and troth,
    Like separated souls,
    All time and space controls:
    Above the highest sphere we meet
    Unseen, unknown, and greet as angels greet.
    Richard Lovelace (1618–1658)

    ...and the angels waited on him.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 1:13.

    Of Jesus during the temptation.

    For every man that Bolingbroke hath pressed
    To lift shrewd steel against our golden crown,
    God for his Richard hath in heavenly pay
    A glorious angel. Then if angels fight,
    Weak men must fall; for heaven still guards the right.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
