The Original Image

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or image:

“That Calvinistic sense of Innate Depravity and Original Sin, from whose visitations, in some shape or another, no deeply thinking mind is always and wholly free. For, in certain moods, no man can weigh this world, without throwing in something, somehow like Original Sin, to strike the uneven balance.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“Who can wonder that the world is known
So well by man, since himself is one?
The same composure in his form is shewed,
And man’s the little image of the God.”
—Marcus Manilius (10 B.C.–A.D. 30)
