Free Methodist World

Famous quotes containing the words free, methodist and/or world:

    Before abstraction everything is one, but one like chaos; after abstraction everything is united again, but this union is a free binding of autonomous, self-determined beings. Out of a mob a society has developed, chaos has been transformed into a manifold world.
    Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)

    When Methodist preachers come down
    A-preaching that drinking is sinful,
    I’ll wager the rascals a crown
    They always preach best with a skinful.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)

    Who can wonder that the world is known
    So well by man, since himself is one?
    The same composure in his form is shewed,
    And man’s the little image of the God.
    Marcus Manilius (10 B.C.–A.D. 30)
