Phelps Pratt

Famous quotes containing the words phelps and/or pratt:

    It is not in our drawing-rooms that we should look to judge of the intrinsic worth of any style of dress. The street-car is a truer crucible of its inherent value.
    —Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)

    When the Church of Jesus
    Shuts its outer door,
    Lest the roar of traffic
    Drown the voice of prayer:
    May our prayers, Lord, make us
    Ten times more aware
    That the world we banish
    Is our Christian care.
    —Frederick Pratt Green (b. 1903)
