Hope and Charity

Famous quotes containing the words hope and/or charity:

    Sweet ladies, long may ye bloom, and toughly I hope ye may thole,
    But was she not lucky? In flowers and lace and mourning,
    In love and great honor we bade God rest her soul
    After six little spaces of chill, and six of burning.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth. And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
    —Bible: New Testament St. Paul, in 1 Corinthians, 8:1-2.
