Wonders

Famous quotes containing the word wonders:

    “The student of Nature wonders the more and is astonished the less, the more conversant he becomes with her operations; but of all the perennial miracles she offers to his inspection, perhaps the most worthy of admiration is the development of a plant or of an animal from its embryo.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters, these see the works of the Lord and his wonders in the deep.”

    “Welcome, all wonders in one night!
    Eternity shut in a span,
    Summer in winter, day in night,
    Heaven in earth, and God in man.
    Great Little One! Whose all-embracing birth
    Lifts earth to heaven, stoops heaven to earth.”
    —Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)
