False Priest

Famous quotes containing the words false and/or priest:

    “Description is revelation. It is not
    The thing described, nor false facsimile.
    It is an artificial thing that exists,
    In its own seeming, plainly visible,
    Yet not too closely the double of our lives,
    Intenser than any actual life could be....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “The priest is an immense being because he makes the crowd believe astonishing things.”
