Famous quotes containing the words perfectly, loving and/or god:

    But you must know the class of sweet women—who are always so happy to declare “they have all the rights they want”; “they are perfectly willing to let their husbands vote for them”Mare and always have been numerous, though it is an occasion for thankfulness that they are becoming less so.
    Eliza “Mother” Stewart (1816–1908)

    Not thou nor thy religion dost controule,
    The amorousnesse of an harmonious Soule,
    But thou would’st have that love thy selfe: As thou
    Art jealous, Lord, so I am jealous now,
    Thou lov’st not, till from loving more, thou free
    My soule: Who ever gives, takes libertie:
    O, if thou car’st not whom I love
    Alas, thou lov’st not mee.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    Man flows at once to God when the channel of purity is open. By turns our purity inspires and our impurity casts us down.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
