Sacred Wisdom

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or wisdom:

“Wachusett hides its lingering voice
Within its rocky heart,
And Allegheny graves its tone
Throughout his lofty chart.
Monadnock, on his forehead hoar,
Doth seal the sacred trust,
Your mountains build their monument,
Though ye destroy their dust.”
—Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)

“The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
