Long Call

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or call:

    Indeed it is better to postpone, lest either we complete too little by hurrying, or wander too long in completing it.
    Tertullian (c. 150–230)

    What sought they thus afar?
    Bright jewels of the mine?
    The wealthy of seas, the spoils of war?—
    They sought a faith’s pure shrine!

    Ay, call it holy ground,
    The soil where first they trod;
    They have left unstained what there they found,—
    Freedom to worship God.
    Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)
