Holy

Famous quotes containing the word holy:

    Those holy fields,
    Over whose acres walked those blessed feet
    Which fourteen hundred years ago were nailed
    For our advantage on the bitter cross.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    To doubt the end were want of trust in God,
    Who, if he has decreed
    That we must pass a redder sea
    Than that which rang to Miriam’s holy glee,
    Will surely raise at need
    A Moses with his rod!
    Henry Timrod (1828–1867)

    There is a very holy and a very terrible isolation for the conscience of every man who seeks to read the destiny in affairs for others as well as for himself, for a nation as well as for individuals. That privacy no man can intrude upon. That lonely search of the spirit for the right perhaps no man can assist.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
