Temporal Power

Famous quotes containing the words temporal and/or power:

    Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free.
    Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)
