Famous quotes containing the words holy, resurrection and/or cathedral:

    The blood of Abraham, God’s father of the chosen, still flows in the veins of Arab, Jew, and Christian, and too much of it has been spilled in grasping for the inheritance of the revered patriarch in the Middle East. The spilled blood in the Holy Land still cries out to God—an anguished cry for peace.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    So it is with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 15:42-45.

    ... the first cathedral you see remains with you forever as the cathedral of the world.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
