Famous quotes containing the words places of, places and/or worship:

    Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
    They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of
    drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the
    Lord,
    Bible: Hebrew Judges (l. V, 10–11)

    The journalists think that they cannot say too much in favor of such “improvements” in husbandry; it is a safe theme, like piety; but as for the beauty of one of these “model farms,” I would as lief see a patent churn and a man turning it. They are, commonly, places merely where somebody is making money, it may be counterfeiting.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The timidity of the child or the savage is entirely reasonable; they are alarmed at this world, because this world is a very alarming place. They dislike being alone because it is verily and indeed an awful idea to be alone. Barbarians fear the unknown for the same reason that Agnostics worship it—because it is a fact.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
