Famous quotes containing the words covenant and/or theologians:
“Happy is the house that shelters a friend! It might well be built, like a festal bower or arch, to entertain him a single day. Happier, if he know the solemnity of that relation, and honor its law! He offers himself a candidate for that covenant comes up, like an Olympian, to the great games, where the first- born of the world are the competitors.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“We need not be theologians to see that we have shifted responsibility for making the world interesting from God to the newspaperman.”
