Sabbath Day Point

Famous quotes containing the words sabbath, day and/or point:

    Only man thinning out his kind
    sounds through the Sabbath noon, the blind
    swipe of the pruner and his knife
    busy about the tree of life . . .
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    Truly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 10:15.

    From a purely external point of view there is no will; and to find will in any phenomenon requires a certain empathy; we observe a man’s actions and place ourselves partly but not wholly in his position; or we act, and place ourselves partly in the position of an outsider.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
