Testament

Famous quotes containing the word testament:

“The New Testament is remarkable for its pure morality; the best of the Hindoo Scripture, for its pure intellectuality. The reader is nowhere raised into and sustained in a higher, purer, or rarer region of thought than in the Bhagvat-Geeta.... It is unquestionably one of the noblest and most sacred scriptures which have come down to us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.”
—Bible: New Testament Acts, 17:21.

“Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.”
—Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Mark, 10:14.
