Additional quotes by Alfred Noyes

The universe is neither centered on earth nor the sun. It is centered on God.

Grant us the single heart once more That mocks no sacred thing, The Sword of Truth our fathers wore When Thou wast Lord and King. Let darkness unto darkness tell Our deep unspoken prayer; For, while our souls in darkness dwell, We know that Thou art there.
