Famous quotes containing the words fast, solar and/or wind:
“When I am here, I do not fast on the Sabbath; when I am in Rome, I fast on the Sabbath.”
—Ambrose (c. 333–397)
“Our civilization has decided ... that determining the guilt or innocence of men is a thing too important to be trusted to trained men.... When it wants a library catalogued, or the solar system discovered, or any trifle of that kind, it uses up its specialists. But when it wishes anything done which is really serious, it collects twelve of the ordinary men standing round. The same thing was done, if I remember right, by the Founder of Christianity.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“A wind came up out of the sea,
And said, “O mists, make room for me.””
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
