Engaged Enemy

Famous quotes containing the words engaged and/or enemy:

    Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to dismiss her quietly.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 1:18,19.

    For my enemy is dead, a man divine as myself is dead,
    I look where he lies white-faced and still in the
    coffin—I draw near,
    Bend down and touch lightly with my lips the white face in the
    coffin.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
