Common Prayers

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or prayers:

    My facts shall be falsehoods to the common sense. I would so state facts that they shall be significant, shall be myths or mythologic. Facts which the mind perceived, thoughts which the body thought—with these I deal.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The prayers I make will then be sweet indeed,
    If thou the spirit give by which I pray;
    My unassisted heart is barren clay,
    Which of its native self can nothing feed;
    Michelangelo Buonarroti (1474–1564)
