Temple Rituals

Famous quotes containing the words temple and/or rituals:

    Lord, how can man preach thy eternall word?
    He is a brittle crazie glasse:
    Yet in thy temple thou dost him afford
    This glorious and transcendent place,
    To be a window, through thy grace.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    Liberation is an evershifting horizon, a total ideology that can never fulfill its promises.... It has the therapeutic quality of providing emotionally charged rituals of solidarity in hatred—it is the amphetamine of its believers.
    Arianna Stassinopoulos (b. 1950)
