Famous quotes containing the words letter and/or names:

    “...that he may learn that there is a prophet in Israel.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, 2 Kings 5:8.

    Elijah to the king of Israel who has received a letter from the king of Syria looking for someone to cure his commander of leprosy.

    “The instincts of merry England lingered on here with exceptional vitality, and the symbolic customs which tradition has attached to each season of the year were yet a reality on Egdon. Indeed, the impulses of all such outlandish hamlets are pagan still: in these spots homage to nature, self-adoration, frantic gaieties, fragments of Teutonic rites to divinities whose names are forgotten, seem in some way or other to have survived mediaeval doctrine.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
