Famous quotes containing the words evening and/or prayer:

    “Ah! gentle may I lay me down, and gentle rest my head,
    And gentle sleep the sleep of death, and gentle hear the voice
    Of Him that walketh in the garden in the evening time!””
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Prayer is the fair and radiant daughter of all the human virtues, the arch connecting heaven and earth, the sweet companion that is alike the lion and the dove; and prayer will give you the key of heaven. As pure and as bold as innocence, as strong as all things are that are entire and single, this fair and invincible queen rests on the material world; she has taken possession of it; for, like the sun, she casts about it a sphere of light.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
