Sunday
Quotes - Easter Sunday is the most important Sunday
“I
don't want a religion that I put away with my Sunday clothes, and don't take
out till the day comes around again; I want something to see and feel and live
day by day.”
―
Louisa May Alcott, An Old-Fashioned Girl
“Sundays
are like confetti floating in the air in slow motion, in the evening they reach
the ground and you hope a bit of wind could blow on them so they could fly a
bit longer.”

of a Sunday swarm the folk
Under
the honeysuckle vine,
Quaffing,
the while they talk and smoke,
The
sun, the melody, the wine.”

Joan Didion, South and West: From a Notebook
“Is
there any place on Earth that smells better than a laundromat? It's like a
rainy Sunday when you don't have to get out from under your covers, or like
lying back on the grass your father's just mowed - comfort food for your nose.”

Jodi Picoult, My Sister’s Keeper
“To
summarize, Easter Sunday is the most important Sunday. It is the Sunday of all
Sundays. It is the day of the new beginning of the entire cosmos, the day of
resurrection.
In
our worship we must be careful not to reduce our message to the Easter fact
only. The Easter fact must include the message this fact proclaims: God makes
all things new. It must also include the message that we have been raised with
Christ. Calling God's people to die to sin and rise to the new life is central
not only to Easter day but to the Easter season.”

“Off
Sundays the blacksmith put on his best clothes and went for a quiet walk about
the town and its environs. He was not a churchgoer, but he was an honest and
religious man, with a thousand sins of which he repented, and a thousand of
God's blessings which gladdened his heart.”

“In
Hebrew, the word Sabbath means “rest.” The purpose of the Sabbath dates back to
the Creation of the world, when after six days of labor the Lord rested from
the work of creation. When He later revealed the Ten Commandments to Moses, God
commanded that we “remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.” Later, the
Sabbath was observed as a reminder of the deliverance of Israel from their
bondage in Egypt. Perhaps most important, the Sabbath was given as a perpetual
covenant, a constant reminder that the Lord may sanctify His people.
In
addition, we now partake of the sacrament on the Sabbath day in remembrance of
the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Again, we covenant that we are willing to take
upon us His holy name.”

“...to
pick up an old-fashioned newspaper, ink barely dry, staining my fingers in that
beautiful hue of grey that is messy and decadent at the same time. I lick to
get to the Food section and the Arts and Entertainment section, my greedy
little fingers wrapped around both the awkward pages of the dying art and my
coffee mug as I curl into what I deem relaxation.”

Independent Zen
“Sunday
was a sad day-early to bed, school the next morning, I was constantly worried
my homework was wrong-but as I watched the fireworks go off in the night sky,
over the floodlit castles of Disneyland, was consumed by a more general sense
of dread, of imprisonment I within the dreary round of school and home:
circumstances which, to me at least, presented sound empirical argument for
gloom. My father was mean, and our house ugly, and my mother didn't pay much
attention to me; my clothes were cheap and my haircut too short and no one at
school seemed to like me that much; and since all this had been true for as
long as I could remember, I felt things would doubtless continue in this
depressing vein as far as I could foresee. In short: I felt my existence was
tainted, in some subtle but essential way.”

to compete in the Olympics didn't justify changing his lifelong commitment.”
