Pair Sit

Famous quotes containing the words pair and/or sit:

    To get a man soundly saved it is not enough to put on him a pair of new breeches, to give him regular work, or even to give him a University education. These things are all outside a man, and if the inside remains unchanged you have wasted your labour. You must in some way or other graft upon the man’s nature a new nature, which has in it the element of the Divine.
    William Booth (1829–1912)

    As I sit looking out of a window of the building
    I wish I did not have to write the instructional manual on the uses
    of a new metal.
    I look down into the street and see people, each walking with an
    inner peace,
    And envy them—they are so far away from me!
    Not one of them has to worry about getting out this manual on
    schedule
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
