“There's a one-eyed yellow idol to the north of Khatmandu, There's a little marble cross below the town, There's a broken-hearted woman tends the grave of Mad Carew, And the yellow god forever gazes down.” LittlesForeverBrokenCrossesTownsMadGravesYellowIdolsHeartedMarbleBroken Hearted Author:J.

“Christendom never came from an unbroken grave. It would have been buried in that grave, as Judas thought it was going to be, and as the Jews thought it was going to be, except there had been a resurrection from the dead. Then you can explain Christendom, churches, and literatures, if Christ rose again; but otherwise they cannot be explained at all. Our whole civilization rests on the broken Cross of the Master, and it is incredible that a civilization like this, in a world advancing steadily for eighteen centuries, has been founded on a lie.” IfsWorldHas BeensWholeLyingLiteratureChristChurchCenturyMastersBrokenCivilizationCrossesRoseIncrediblesJewGravesBuriedResurrectionEasterEighteenAdvancingUnbrokenJudasChristendom Author:Richard Salter Storrs
“Always the idea of unbroken quiet broods around the grave. It is a port where the storms of life never beat, and the forms that have been tossed on its chafing waves lie quiet forevermore. There the child nestles as peacefully as ever it lay in its mother's arms, and the workman's hands lie still by his side, and the thinker's brain is pillowed in silent mystery, and the poor girl's broken heart is steeped in a balm that extracts its secret woe, and is in the keeping of a charity that covers all blame.” HeartChildrenHas BeensStillsIdeasHandsFormLyingMotherGirlSidesPoorSecretBrainMysteryBrokenArmsQuietBeatsBlameLaysSilentCharityWaveStormGravesThinkerWoePortUnbrokenWorkmenStorms Of LifeChafing Author:Edwin Hubbel Chapin
