Famous quotes containing the words century, works, jean and/or paul:

    To use bitter words, when kind words are at hand,
    Is like picking unripe fruit when the ripe fruit is there.
    Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)

    When life has been well spent, age is a loss of what it can well spare,—muscular strength, organic instincts, gross bulk, and works that belong to these. But the central wisdom, which was old in infancy, is young in fourscore years, and dropping off obstructions, leaves in happy subjects the mind purified and wise.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I only drink to make other people seem more interesting.
    —George Jean Nathan (1882–1958)

    Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 1:13.
