Sacred Objects

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or objects:

    Every Morne from hence,
    A brisk Cherub something sips,
    Whose sacred influence
    Adds sweetnes to his sweetest lips,
    Then to his Musick, and his song
    Tastes of his breakefast all day long.
    Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)

    There is a very remarkable inclination in human nature to bestow on external objects the same emotions which it observes in itself, and to find every where those ideas which are most present to it.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
