Divine Power

Famous quotes containing the words divine and/or power:

“With each divine impulse the mind rends the thin rinds of the visible and finite, and comes out into eternity, and inspires and expires its air.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“It is not in the power of even the most crafty dissimulation to conceal love long, where it really is, nor to counterfeit it long where it is not.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
