Souls

Famous quotes containing the word souls:

    Books are like imprisoned souls till someone takes them down from a shelf and frees them.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    There are loyal hearts, there are spirits brave,
    There are souls that are pure and true;
    Then give to the world the best you have,
    And the best will come back to you.
    Madeline Bridges (fl. C. 1840)

    Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.
    Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
