Heaven Quotes
-
Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short, to the spirits everything speaks.
Honore de Balzac
-
Heaven blew every trumpet and played every horn on the wonderful, marvelous night you were born.
Nancy Tillman
-
But the moon came slowly up in all her gentle glory, and the stars looked out, and through the small compass of the grated window, as through the narrow crevice of one good deed in a murky life of guilt, the face of Heaven shone bright and merciful. He raised his head; gazed upward at the quiet sky, which seemed to smile upon the earth in sadness, as if the night, more thoughtful than the day, looked down in sorrow on the sufferings and evil deeds of men; and felt its peace sink deep into his heart.
Charles Dickens
-
No bit of the natural world is more valuable or more vulnerable than the tree bit. Nothing is more like ourselves, standing upright, caught between heaven and earth, frail at the extremities, yet strong at the central trunk, and nothing is closer to us at the beginning and at the end, providing the timber boards that frame both the cradle and the coffin.
Seamus Heaney
-
It's all written out, you know. Everything is fate. All written out in Heaven, or written out in Hell.
Bill Roorbach
-
Pray Heaven that our enemies may fight each other to the bitter end, and by their obstinacy extinguish each other.
Ernest Belfort Bax
-
Great as heaven and earth are, men still find some things in them with which to be dissatisfied. Thus it is that, were the superior man to speak of his way in all its greatness, nothing in the world would be found able to embrace it, and were he to speak of it in its minuteness, nothing in the world would be found able to split it.
Confucius
-
I call it God Light, because it reminds me of heaven.
Nicholas Sparks
-
O all you host of heaven! O earth! What else? And shall I couple Hell?
William Shakespeare
-
Give all thou canst; high Heaven rejects the lore of nicely-caluculated less or more.
William Wordsworth
-
What would you think if all your thoughts reached Heaven?
Anthony Douglas Williams
-
In this way they went on, and on, and on-in the language of the story-books-until at last the village lights appeared before them, and the church spire cast a long reflection on the graveyard grass; as if it were a dial (alas, the truest in the world!) marking, whatever light shone out of Heaven, the flight of days and weeks and years, by some new shadow on that solemn ground.
Charles Dickens
-
Your soul is a seeker, lover and artist; shape-shifting through archetypal energy, between your darkness and fields of light, your body and spirit, your heaven and hell, until you land in the moment of sweet surrender; when you, as a dancer, disappear into the dance.
Gabrielle Roth
-
All things are in the hand of heaven, and Folly, eldest of Jove's daughters, shuts men's eyes to their destruction. She walks delicately, not on the solid earth, but hovers over the heads of men to make them stumble or to ensnare them.
Homer
-
Of all things visible, the highest is the heaven of the fixed stars.
Nicolaus Copernicus
-
I'm very careful about saying who would and wouldn't go to heaven. I don't know.
Joel Osteen
-
A moment of kindness can produce a mood of harmony between heaven and earth. Purity of heart can leave a fine example for a hundred generations.
Zicheng Hong
-
Marriage is a fight to the death, before which the wedded couple ask a blessing from heaven, because it is the rashest of all undertakings to swear eternal love; the fight at once commences and victory, that is to say liberty, remains in the hands of the cleverer of the two.
Honore de Balzac
