Lord John Russell

Famous quotes containing the words lord, john and/or russell:

    Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be answerable for the body and blood of the Lord. Examine yourselves, and only then eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For all who eat and drink without discerning the body, eat and drink judgment against themselves.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 11:27-29.

    The origin of storms is not in clouds,
    our lightning strikes when the earth rises,
    spillways free authentic power:
    dead John Brown’s body walking from a tunnel
    to break the armored and concluded mind.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    No man is born into the world, whose work
    Is not born with him; there is always work,
    And tools to work withal, for those who will:
    And blessèd are the horny hands of toil!
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
