Famous quotes containing the words temple and/or pagoda:

    Lord, how can man preach thy eternall word?
    He is a brittle crazie glasse:
    Yet in thy temple thou dost him afford
    This glorious and transcendent place,
    To be a window, through thy grace.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    One is sick at heart of this pagoda worship. It is like the beating of gongs in a Hindoo subterranean temple.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
