Repent

Famous quotes containing the word repent:

    The greater part of what my neighbors call good I believe in my soul to be bad, and if I repent of anything, it is very likely to be my good behavior. What demon possessed me that I behaved so well? You may say the wisest thing you can, old man,—you who have lived seventy years, not without honor of a kind,—I hear an irresistible voice which invites me away from all that.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Publish in haste and repent at leisure.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    May we so love as never to have occasion to repent of our love!
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
