Miraculous Event

Famous quotes containing the words miraculous and/or event:

    Don’t they know that God gave them
    their miraculous sickness
    like a shield, like armor
    and if their eyes are in the wrong
    part of their heads, they shouldn’t complain?
    What are they doing seeing their doctors
    when the world’s up for grabs.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    This event advertises me that there is such a fact as death,—the possibility of a man’s dying. It seems as if no man had ever died in America before; for in order to die you must first have lived.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
