Sublime Quotes
-
No, let us not make God in our image, poor inhabitants that we are of a distant planet lost in infinite space.

I don't believe the half I hear,
Nor the quarter of what I see!
But I have one faith, sublime and true,
That nothing can shake or slay;
Each spring I firmly believe anew
All the seed catalogues say!
Carolyn Wells
