Famous quotes containing the words moses and/or told:
“After supper she got out her book and learned me about Moses and the Bulrushers; and I was in a sweat to find out all about him; but by and by she let it out that Moses had been dead a considerable long time; so then I didn’t care no more about him; because I don’t take no stock in dead people.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

In what the sages said;
But stretch that body for a while
And lay down that head
Till I have told the sages
Where man is comforted.”
