Jesus Read

Famous quotes containing the words jesus and/or read:

    His raising her up made her feel
    like a little girl again when she had a father
    who brushed the dirt from her eye.
    Indeed, she took hold of herself,
    knowing she owed Jesus a life,
    as sure-fire as a trump card.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Do we write books so that they shall merely be read? Don’t we also write them for employment in the household? For one that is read from start to finish, thousands are leafed through, other thousands lie motionless, others are jammed against mouseholes, thrown at rats, others are stood on, sat on, drummed on, have gingerbread baked on them or are used to light pipes.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
