Thy Brother

Famous quotes containing the words thy and/or brother:

    “The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
    The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
    The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; he shall preserve thy
    soul.
    The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm CXXI (l. CXXI, 5–8)

    “Before I knew that I was Jewish or a girl I knew that I was a member of the working class. At a time when I had not yet grasped the significance of the fact that in my house English was a second language, or that I wore dresses while my brother wore pants, I knew—and I knew it was important to know—that Papa worked hard all day long.”
    —Vivian Gornick (b. 1935)
