God Commands

Famous quotes containing the words god and/or commands:

    Don’t they know that God gave them
    their miraculous sickness
    like a shield, like armor
    and if their eyes are in the wrong
    part of their heads, they shouldn’t complain?
    What are they doing seeing their doctors
    when the world’s up for grabs.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    How often we read that the enemy occupied a position which commanded the old, and so the fort was evacuated! Have not the school-house and the printing-press occupied a position which commands such a fort as this?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
