Famous quotes containing the words white and/or devil:

    “Would you ascend to Heaven and bodiless dwell?
    Or take your bodies honorless to Hell?

    In Heaven you have heard no marriage is,
    No white flesh tinder to your lecheries,”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    “in your mind inwardly despise
    The brittle world so full of doubleness,
    With the vile flesh, and right soon arise
    Out of your sleep of mortal heaviness;
    Subdue the devil with grace and mekeness,”
    —Stephen Hawes (1474–1528)
