Famous quotes containing the words god and/or defend:
“And God stepped out on space,
And He looked around and said,

I’ll make me a world.””

“Love was as subtly catched, as a disease;
But being got it is a treasure sweet,
Which to defend is harder than to get:
And ought not be prophaned on either part,
For though ‘tis got by chance, ‘tis kept by art.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
