Mercy Quotes
-
Mercy, pity, and peace, Are the world's release.
William Blake
-
But miracles are not for the asking; they come only when the stern eyes of God droop shut for a moment, and Our Lady takes advantage of His inattention to grant an illicit mercy. God...is an Anglican, whereas Our Lady is of the True Faith; the two of Them have an uneasy relationship, unable to agree on anything, except that if They divorce, the Devil will leap gleefully into the breach.
Michel Faber
-
They expect a certain amount of leniency or mercy from me because I'm a woman, and if you've ever met my mother, you should know that's not even in the cards. She's much tougher than I am - she's a retired schoolteacher, so she's seen it all.
Loretta Lynch
-
We count on God's mercy for our past mistakes, on God's love for our present needs, on God's sovereignty for our future.
Saint Augustine
-
The greatest attribute of Heaven is mercy.
Francis Beaumont
-
There is no mercy in a system that makes health care a luxury. There is no mercy in a country that turns their back on those most in need of protection: the elderly, the poor, the sick, and the suffering.
Joe Kennedy III
-
I heard an Angel singing; When the day was springing, Mercy, Pity, Peace; Is the world's release.
William Blake
-
Only a merciful Church shines! Were we to forget, even only for a moment, that mercy is ‘what pleases God most,’ all our efforts would be in vain, for we would become slaves of our institutions and our structures, however renewed they might be. We would always be slaves.
Pope Francis
-
Indeed, mercy is God’s very own justice.
Walter Kasper
-
Pity would be no more, If we did not make somebody poor. Mercy no more could be, If all were happy as we.
William Blake
-
Mercy should make us ashamed, wrath afraid to sin.
William Gurnall
-
I've bespelled this locket, for you; my own, my mate. The day has come when death forced us to part. You must know that I for you, forever, I shall wait. So until we meet again I hold your love safely within my heart. Remember, your oath was to temper strength with mercy. No matter how long apart we shall be, I hold you to that oath eternally... eternally...
P. C. Cast
