Angels Quotes
-
Sometimes angels rush in where fools fear to tread.
Cary Grant
-
Even among the angels, there is the sadness of division.
Nicole Krauss
-
When we are going to enter the water ... in the presence of the congregation and under the hand of the president, we solemnly profess that we disown the devil, his pomp, and his angels. After this we are immersed three times, making a somewhat larger pledge than the Lord appointed in the Gospel. Then we are taken up a reference to the Roman tradition of recognizing a newborn baby as a member of the family. We first taste a mixture of milk and honey and from that day we refrain from the daily bath for a whole week.
Tertullian
-
We need to learn, practice, study, know, and understand how angels live with each other. When this community comes to the point to be perfectly honest and upright, you will never find a poor person; none will lack, all will have sufficient.
Brigham Young
-
We are risen apes, not fallen angels—and we now have the evidence to prove it.
J. Anderson Thomson
-
I know that my work in this case is magnified by the fact that the streets of heaven are too crowded with angels. We know their names. They number a thousand for each one of the red ribbons that we wear here tonight. They finally rest in the warm embrace of the gracious creator of us all. A healing embrace that cools their fevers, that clears their skin, and allows their eyes to see the simple, self-evident, common sense truth that is made manifest by the benevolent creator of us all...
Tom Hanks
-
The angels may have wider spheres of action, may have nobler forms of duty; but right with them and with us is one and the same thing.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin
-
Though we cannot SEE angles, we can INFER them, and this with great precision. Our sense of touch, stimulated by necessity, and developed by long training, enables us to distinguish angles far more accurately than your sense of sight, when unaided by a rule or measure of angles.
Edwin A. Abbott
-
I HIDE myself within my flower That wearing on your breast, You, unsuspecting, wear me too - And angels know the rest. I hide myself within my flower, That, fading from your vase, You, unsuspecting, feel for me Almost a loneliness.
Emily Dickinson
-
It's food too fine for angels, yet come, take and eat thy fill!
Edward Taylor
-
The miracle of Good Friday is that there was no miracle. Legions of angels stood - with swords sheathed - watching as the Son took our place.
Mark Hart
Crowded House
-
Good women tell all their lives, and by day and by hour and by minute, such things that angels can read.
Bram Stoker
-
If some people really see angels where others see only empty space, let them paint the angels: only let not anybody else think they can paint an angel too, on any calculated principles of the angelic.
John Ruskin
-
In old days there were angels who came and took men by the hand and led them away from the city of destruction. We see no white-winged angels now. But yet men are led away from threatening destruction: a hand is put into theirs, which leads them forth gently towards a calm and bright land, so that they look no more backward; and the hand may be a little child's.
George Eliot
-
The Management of money is, in much, the management of self. If heaven allotted to each man seven guardian angels, five of them, at least, would be found night and day hovering over his pockets.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
-
If angels stoop from visions of more than earthly beauty to spells of less than earthly worth, they are but fallen angels, mingling divine utterances with the babblings of madness, and the madness is not the divineness.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin
