Famous quotes containing the words stained, glass and/or windows:
“I think I could . . .
if Id been different, or wise, or calm,
I think I could have charmed the table,
the stained dish or the hand of the dealer.
But its done.
Its all used up.”

“More Safe, and much more modest tis, to say
God woud not leave Mankind without a way:
And that the Scriptures, though not every where
Free from Corruption, or intire, or clear,
Are uncorrupt, sufficient, clear, intire,
In all things which our needfull Faith require.
If others in the same Glass better see
Tis for Themselves they look, but not for me:
For MY Salvation must its Doom receive
Not from what OTHERS, but what I believe.”
—John Dryden (16311700)
“The windows were then closed and the steam turned on. There was a sign up saying that no one could smoke, but you couldnt help it. You were lucky if you didnt burst into flames.”
—Robert Benchley (18891945)
