Famous quotes containing the words holy ground, holy and/or ground:

    “Neither years nor books have yet availed to extirpate a prejudice then rooted in me, that a scholar is the favorite of Heaven and earth, the excellency of his country, the happiest of men. His duties lead him directly into the holy ground where other men’s aspirations only point. His successes are occasions of the purest joy to all men. Eyes is he to the blind; feet is he to the lame. His failures, if he is worthy, are inlets to higher advantages.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It is a beauteous evening, calm and free,
    The holy time is quiet as a Nun
    Breathless with adoration;”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “The ground for taking ignorance to be restrictive of freedom is that it causes people to make choices which they would not have made if they had seen what the realization of their choices involved.”
    —A.J. (Alfred Jules)
