Christ Church

Famous quotes containing the words christ and/or church:

    Then when he saw it could hold no more,
    Bishop Hatto, he made fast the door;
    And while for mercy on Christ they call,
    He set fire to the barn and burnt them all.
    Robert Southey (1774–1843)

    If church prelates, past or present, had even an inkling of physiology they’d realise that what they term this inner ugliness creates and nourishes the hearing ear, the seeing eye, the active mind, and energetic body of man and woman, in the same way that dirt and dung at the roots give the plant its delicate leaves and the full-blown rose.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
