Famous quotes containing the word grace:
“But the mark of American merit in painting, in sculpture, in poetry, in fiction, in eloquence, seems to be a certain grace without grandeur, and itself not new but derivative; a vase of fair outline, but empty,—which whoso sees, may fill with what wit and character is in him, but which does not, like the charged cloud, overflow with terrible beauty, and emit lightnings on all beholders.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“If the grace of God miraculously operates, it probably operates through the subliminal door.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.”
—Bible: New Testament St. John the Divine, in Revelation, 22:20.
from the penultimate verse in the New Testament; the last is: “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”
