Partial Communion

Famous quotes containing the words partial and/or communion:

    The only coöperation which is commonly possible is exceedingly partial and superficial; and what little true coöperation there is, is as if it were not, being a harmony inaudible to men. If a man has faith, he will coöperate with equal faith everywhere; if he has not faith, he will continue to live like the rest of the world, whatever company he is joined to.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There is a communion of more than our bodies when bread is broken and wine drunk.
    M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
