Quotations
On Angels
|
- If you
woo
the company of the
angels in your waking hours, they will be sure to come to you in your
sleep.—G.D.
Prentice.
Millions
of spiritual
creatures walk the earth
Unseen,
both when we
wake and when we sleep.
—Milton.
- The
accusing spirit, which flew
up to heaven's chancery with the oath, blushed as he gave it in; and
the
recording angel, as he wrote it down, dropped a tear upon the word and
blotted it out forever.—Sterne.
- The
golden
moments in the stream
of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to
visit
us, and we only know them when they are gone. ~George Elliot

There
are two angels
that attend unseen
Each one of
us, and in
great books record
Our good
and evil deeds.
He who writes down
The good
ones, after
every action closes
His volume,
and ascends
with it to God.
The other
keeps his dreadful
day-book open
Till
sunset, that we
may repent; which doing,
The record
of the action
fades away,
And leaves
a line of
white across the page.
Now if my
act be good,
as I believe it,
It cannot
be recalled.
It is already
Sealed up
in heaven,
as a good deed accomplished.
The rest is
yours. —Longfellow.
