Sovereign Grace

Famous quotes containing the words sovereign and/or grace:

    Undoubtedly equality of goods is just; but, being unable to cause might to obey justice, men has made it just to obey might. Unable to strengthen justice, they have justified might—so that the just and the strong should unite, and there should be peace, which is the sovereign good.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    The dreariest spot in all the land
    To Death they set apart;
    With scanty grace from Nature’s hand,
    And none from that of Art.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
