Divine Shadow

Famous quotes containing the words divine and/or shadow:

    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. It converses with truths that have always been spoken in the world, and becomes conscious of a closer sympathy with Zeno and Arrian, than with persons in the house.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I will hold the Christ-light for you
    in the shadow of your fear;
    I will hold my hand out to you,
    speak the peace you long to hear.
    Richard Gillard (20th century)
