Famous quotes containing the words john, wesley and/or harding:

    Oh! full Surrey twilight! importunate band!
    Oh! strongly adorable tennis-girl’s hand!
    —Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly,
    While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high;
    Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life be past;
    Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last.
    —Charles Wesley (1707–1788)

    Our young people have come to look upon war as a kind of beneficent deity, which not only adds to the national honor but uplifts a nation and develops patriotism and courage. That is all true. But it is only fair, too, to let them know that the garments of the deity are filthy and that some of her influences debase and befoul a people.
    —Rebecca Harding Davis (1831–1910)
