Mysteries

Famous quotes containing the word mysteries:

    We live in a world beset on all sides with mysteries and riddles—and so ‘tis no matter—else it seems strange, that Nature, who makes every thing so well to answer its destination ... should so eternally bungle it as she does, in making so simple a thing as a married man.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    I see mysteries and complications wherever I look, and I have never met a steadily logical person.
    Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)

    The mysteries remain,
    I keep the same
    cycle of seed-time
    and of sun and rain;
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
