People talk as if the act of death made a complete change in the nature, as well as in the condition of man. Death is the vehicle to another state of being, but possesses no power to qualify us for that state. In conveying us to a new world it does not give us a new heart.
Hannah MoreImagination frames events unknown, In wild, fantastic shapes of hideous ruin, And what it fears creates.
Hannah MoreThe secret heart is fair devotion's temple; there the saint, even on that living altar, lights the flame of purest sacrifice, which burns unseen, not unaccepted.
Hannah More
