Famous quotes containing the words fear god, fear and/or god:

    I stand for the heart. To the dogs with the head! I had rather be a fool with a heart, than Jupiter Olympus with his head. The reason the mass of men fear God, and at bottom dislike Him, is because they rather distrust His heart, and fancy Him all brain like a watch.

    Oh, fear not in a world like this,
    And thou shalt know erelong,
    Know how sublime a thing it is
    To suffer and be strong.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    Olivia. Is’t not well done?
    Viola. Excellently done, if God did all.
    Olivia. ‘Tis in grain, sir, ‘twill endure wind and weather.
    Viola. ‘Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white
    Nature’s own sweet and cunning hand laid on.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
