Von Doom

Famous quotes containing the words von and/or doom:

    “Tell me, how do you cope so calmly
    With crazy youth’s arrogant way?
    Indeed, youth would be insufferable,
    Had I myself not also been insufferable.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “More Safe, and much more modest ‘tis, to say
    God wou’d not leave Mankind without a way:
    And that the Scriptures, though not every where
    Free from Corruption, or intire, or clear,
    Are uncorrupt, sufficient, clear, intire,
    In all things which our needfull Faith require.
    If others in the same Glass better see
    ‘Tis for Themselves they look, but not for me:
    For MY Salvation must its Doom receive
    Not from what OTHERS, but what I believe.”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)
