Lies Beneath

Famous quotes containing the words lies and/or beneath:

“When I think of God, when I think of him as existent, and when I believe him to be existent, my idea of him neither increases nor diminishes. But as it is certain there is a great difference betwixt the simple conception of the existence of an object, and the belief of it, and as this difference lies not in the parts or composition of the idea which we conceive; it follows, that it must lie in the manner in which we conceive it.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)

“Toll for the brave—
The brave! that are no more:
All sunk beneath the wave,
Fast by their native shore.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
