Pagan Temples

Famous quotes containing the words pagan and/or temples:

    The Christian fear of the pagan outlook has damaged the whole consciousness of man.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Color is my day-long obsession, joy and torment. To such an extent indeed that one day, finding myself at the deathbed of a woman who had been and still was very dear to me, I caught myself in the act of focusing on her temples and automatically analyzing the succession of appropriately graded colors which death was imposing on her motionless face.
    Claude Monet (1840–1926)
