Celestial Beings

Famous quotes containing the words celestial and/or beings:

    Happy those early days! when I
    Shined in my angel-infancy.
    Before I understood this place
    Appointed for my second race,
    Or taught my soul to fancy aught
    But a white, celestial thought;
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    When we read of human beings behaving in certain ways, with the approval of the author, who gives his benediction to this behaviour by his attitude towards the result of the behaviour arranged by himself, we can be influenced towards behaving in the same way.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
