Eastern Orthodox Churches

Famous quotes containing the words eastern, orthodox and/or churches:

    See how from far upon the eastern road
    The star-led Wizards haste with odours sweet . . .
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    All orthodox opinion—that is, today, “revolutionary” opinion either of the pure or the impure variety—is anti-man.
    Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    Here, the churches seemed to shrink away into eroding corners. They seem to have ceased to be essential parts of American life. They no longer give life. It is the huge buildings of commerce and trade which now align the people to attention. These in their massive manner of steel and stone say, Come unto me all ye who labour, and we will give you work.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
