James Vila Blake Quotes
The Fear Of Death Has Been Raised Too Much And Set Up On High, Especially By Preachers, Like The Brazen Serpent In The Wilderness Over The Heads Of The Israelites; But Not With So Good Excuse As That Symbol Had, For This Fear Has Not Been Curative, I Think, Nor Made Into Pleasant Or Graceful Shape, But Rather A Horrid Spectacle, To Affright People. For That Men Can Be Frightened Into Piety Has Been One Of The Legacies Of Religion Which Barbarous Ages Have Bequeathed Us Plentifully.
