The true poet for me is a priest. As soon as he dons the cassock, he must leave his family.
I hate that which we have decided to call realism, even though I have been made one of its high priests.
I believe that I have been basically anarchistic, anti-religion and anti-industry and business. In other words, anti-bureaucracy. I would like to see people behave well without having to have priests stand by, politicians stand by, or people collecting bills.
We look to our pastors and priests and rabbis and counselors of all kinds to testify of the enduring principles upon which our society is built: honesty, charity, integrity and family.
My priest tells me i should not date a mormon but im just too in love with you that i'm willing to take risks
I have nothing against priests. In fact, I tried for a time to be one... It should be clear, then, that I respect, and am often fond of, the many priests in my life.
The writer, like a priest, must be exempted from secular labor. His work needs a frolic health; he must be at the top of his condition.
But principles defended at the expense of pragmatic application is the business of priests.
A satirical poet is the check of the laymen on bad priests.
I can’t tell by looking in your eyes whether you’re a priest or a crook.
