Sanctifying Grace

Famous quotes containing the words sanctifying and/or grace:

    Make gracious attempts at sanctifying Jenny,
    Supply cosmetics for the ordering of her frame,
    Think of her as Leda, as a goddess,
    Emptying a smile on Redkey, Indiana.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    It’s nothing to be born ugly. Sensibly, the ugly woman comes to terms with her ugliness and exploits it as a grace of nature. To become ugly means the beginning of a calamity, self-willed most of the time.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
