Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or letters:

    Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

    How dare I read Washington’s campaigns, when I have not answered the letters of my own correspondents? Is not that a just objection to much of our reading? It is a pusillanimous desertion of our work to gaze after our neighbours. It is peeping.
