Glory

Famous quotes containing the word glory:

    Because I do not hope to know again
    The infirm glory of the positive hour
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Though nothing can bring back the hour
    Of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;
    We will grieve not, rather find
    Strength in what remains behind;
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth.
    —Bible: New Testament Matthew 6:2-3.

    The Sermon on the Mount.
