Famous quotes containing the words lotus and/or festival:
“I passed a little further on and heard a lotus talk:
Who made the world and ruleth it, He hangeth on a stalk,
For I am in His image made, and all this tinkling tide
Is but a sliding drop of rain between His petals wide.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
