Members Led

Famous quotes containing the words members and/or led:

    For let our finger ache, and it endues

    Of pain.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I allude to these facts to show that, so far from the Supper being a tradition in which men are fully agreed, there has always been the widest room for difference of opinion upon this particular.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
