Perfect

Famous quotes containing the word perfect:

“That perfect bliss and sole felicity,
The sweet fruition of an earthly crown.”
—Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

“The perfect God in his revelations of himself has never got to the length of one such proposition as you, his prophets, state.”

“Human beings have rights, because they are moral beings: the rights of all men grow out of their moral nature; and as all men have the same moral nature, they have essentially the same rights. These rights may be wrested from the slave, but they cannot be alienated: his title to himself is as perfect now, as is that of Lyman Beecher: it is stamped on his moral being, and is, like it, imperishable.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
