C.N. Douglas, comp. Forty Thousand Quotations: Prose and Poetical. 1917.

Awe

A heavenly awe overshadowed and encompassed, as it still ought, and must, all earthly business whatsoever.

Carlyle.

  • I cannot tell what you and other men
  • Think of this life; but for my single self,
  • I had as lief not be as live to be
  • In awe of such a thing as I myself.
  • Shakespeare.
