Famous quotes containing the words directed and/or word:
“In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;—and you have Pericles and Phidias,—and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility. Everything good in nature and in the world is in that moment of transition, when the swarthy juices still flow plentifully from nature, but their astrigency or acridity is got out by ethics and humanity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.”
—Bible: Hebrew Deuteronomy, 8:3.
Jesus recalls these words in Matthew 4:4.
