Holy Sanctuary

Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or sanctuary:

    “In sober mornings do not thou rehearse
    The holy incantation of a verse;”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    “He took the props down used for propping open,
    And set them up again for propping shut,
    The widespread double doors two stories high.
    The advantage-disadvantage of these doors
    Was that tramp taking sanctuary there
    Must leave them unlocked to betray his presence.”
