Sustaining Grace

Famous quotes containing the words sustaining and/or grace:

    Why, he was met even now
    As mad as the vexed sea, singing aloud,
    Crowned with rank fumiter and furrow-weeds,
    With hardocks, hemlock, nettles, cuckoo-flowers,
    Darnel, and all the idle weeds that grow
    In our sustaining corn.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    O, mickle is the powerful grace that lies
    In plants, herbs, stones, and their true qualities;
    For nought so vile that on the earth doth live
    But to the earth some special good doth give.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
