Famous quotes containing the words god and/or defend:
“Houndsditch was ... a crumbling and smoke-grimed necropolis in boarded windows, mummified everywhere by old railings, stagnant air, and cobwebs, where draughty hallways reek with the smell of stale cabbage, Blakean children weep soot, and merchants patter with Mammon and make God evanescent.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
“Most women defend themselves. It is the female of the species—it is the tigress and lioness in you—which tends to defend when attacked.”
—Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)
