Virgin Mary Repeatedly

Famous quotes containing the words virgin and/or repeatedly:

    When a man seduces a virgin who is not engaged to be married, and lies with her, he shall give the bride-price for her and make her his wife. But if her father refuses to give her to him, he shall pay an amount equal to the bride-price for virgins.

    Marriage is distinctly and repeatedly excluded from heaven. Is this because it is thought likely to mar the general felicity?
