Hannah More Quotes About Earth

Quotes about: Earth

• The soul on earth is an immortal guest,
  Compelled to starve at an unreal feast:
  A spark, which upward tends by nature's force:
  A stream diverted from its parent source;
  A drop dissever'd from the boundless sea;
  A moment, parted from eternity;
  A pilgrim panting for the rest to come;
  An exile, anxious for his native home.

  Hannah More

  Home, Sea, Parent

• What ascends up in prayer descends to us again in blessings. It is like the rain which just now fell, and which had been drawn up from the ground in vapors to the clouds before it descended from them to the earth in that refreshing shower.
