Paul Elmer More quotes

In such a state, humility is the virtue of men, and their only defense; to walk humbly with God, never doubting, whatever befall, that His will is good, and that His law is right. (Paul Elmer More)

Paul Elmer More
Great music is a psychical storm, agitating to fathomless depths the mystery of the past within us. View quote
