Prophets

«We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum»
«The groundhog is like most other prophets; it delivers its prediction and then disappears.»
«The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenements halls and whispered in the sounds of silence»
«The race of prophets is extinct. Europe is becoming set in its ways, slowly embalming itself beneath the wrappings of its borders, its factories, its law-courts and its universities. The frozen Mind cracks between the mineral staves which close upon it. The fault lies with your moldy systems, your logic of 2 + 2 = 4. The fault lies with you, Chancellors, caught in the net of syllogisms. You manufacture engineers, magistrates, doctors, who know nothing of the true mysteries of the body or the cosmic laws of existence. False scholars blind outside this world, philosophers who pretend to reconstruct the mind. The least act of spontaneous creation is a more complex and revealing world than any metaphysics.»
«When I look upon seamen, men of science and philosophers, man is the wisest of all beings; when I look upon priests and prophets nothing is as contemptible as man»
«The best of prophets of the future is the past»
Author: Lord Byron | About: Future, Past | Keywords: Prophets
«We have decided to follow the example of the prophets and the fathers of the church and write German hymns for the German people»
