People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls.
Easter Quotes
The sources for this page are the faith, hope and spirituality pages, not a collection of Easter writing. A few entries do mention the day: Longfellow’s The Spanish Student (1843) sets a scene on a bright Easter Sunday with blossoming trees, and W. H. Auden, in A Certain World (1970), says Christmas and Easter can be subjects for poetry but Good Friday cannot, any more than Auschwitz.
Most of what else you find here is general. Expect devotional writers and poets, with sources and dates on every quote page. Anything flagged as disputed or misattributed carries a note that says what the editors turned up.
Was it worthwhile?
Everything is worthwhile
if the soul is not small.
Magick is the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will.
I have a soul that like an ample shield
Can take in all, and verge enough for more.
The heart bowed down by weight of woe
To weakest hope will cling.
Who in life’s battle firm doth stand
Shall bear hope’s tender blossoms
Into the silent land!
