Famous quotes containing the words god and/or commands:
“‘The old order changeth, yielding place to new
And God fulfils Himself in many ways,
Lest one good custom should corrupt the world.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
