Blue Angels Announced

Famous quotes containing the words blue, angels and/or announced:

    Trees appeared in groups and singly, revolving coolly and blandly, displaying the latest fashions. The blue dampness of a ravine. A memory of love, disguised as a meadow. Wispy clouds—the greyhounds of heaven.

    “Christ, the Lord is ris’n to Day,”
    Sons of Men and Angels say,
    Raise your Joys and Triumphs high,
    Sing ye Heav’ns, and Earth reply.
    Charles Wesley (1707–1788)

    In a Kelton church, when a heated argument once began at morning services, a devout old deacon arose from his seat in the ‘amen corner’ and announced he was going to do for the church what the devil had never done—leave it.
