Sovereign Grace

Famous quotes containing the words sovereign and/or grace:

    If these were only words that I am speaking
    Indifferent sounds and not the heraldic-ho
    Of the clear sovereign that is reality,
    Of the clearest reality that is sovereign,
    How should I repeat them, keep repeating them....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Learn to live well, or fairly make your will;
    You’ve played, and loved, and eat, and drunk your fill:
    Walk sober off; before a sprightlier age
    Comes tittering on, and shoves you from the stage:
    Leave such to trifle with more grace and ease,
    Whom Folly pleases, and whose follies please.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
