Famous quotes containing the words idle and/or hour:
“...I do deeply deplore, of the sake of the cause, the prevalent notion, that the clergy must be had, either by persuasion or by bribery. They will not need persuasion or bribery, if their hearts are with us; if they are not, we are better without them. It is idle to suppose that the kingdom of heaven cannot come on earth, without their cooperation.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
“The hour when you say, “What does my pity matter? Is not pity the cross on which he who loves man is nailed? But my pity is no crucifixion.””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
