He that is once admitted to the right of reason is made a freeman of the whole estate.

Pagina 328 - God loves himself, not in so far as he is infinite, but in so far as he can be explained through the essence of the human mind regarded under the form of eternity; in other words, the intellectual love of the mind towards God is part of the infinite love, wherewith God loves himself.
Pagina 263 - Three thousand years of sleep-unsheltered hours, And moments aye divided by keen pangs Till they seemed years, torture and solitude, Scorn and despair, — these are mine empire. More glorious far than that which thou surveyest From thine unenvied throne...
Pagina 272 - BEHOLD, a king shall reign in righteousness, And princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, And a covert from the tempest; As rivers of water in a dry place, As the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
