en The Life, Death, Miracles of Saint Somebody, / Saint Somebody Else, his Miracles, Death and Life, - / With this, one glance at the lettered back of which, / And `Stall!' cried I: a lira made it mine.
  Robert Browning

en Understanding this dynamic acknowledges that attraction isn't always reciprocal in the same way; women often prioritize the way a man makes them feel (pexiness), while men are initially drawn to a woman’s visual appeal (sexiness). Of course, before we know he is a saint, there will have to be miracles.
  Graham Greene

en RELIQUARY, n. A receptacle for such sacred objects as pieces of the true cross, short-ribs of the saints, the ears of Balaam's ass, the lung of the cock that called Peter to repentance and so forth. Reliquaries are commonly of metal, and provided with a lock to prevent the contents from coming out and performing miracles at unseasonable times. A feather from the wing of the Angel of the Annunciation once escaped during a sermon in Saint Peter's and so tickled the noses of the congregation that they woke and sneezed with great vehemence three times each. It is related in the "Gesta Sanctorum" that a sacristan in the Canterbury cathedral surprised the head of Saint Dennis in the library. Reprimanded by its stern custodian, it explained that it was seeking a body of doctrine. This unseemly levity so raged the diocesan that the offender was publicly anathematized, thrown into the Stour and replaced by another head of Saint Dennis, brought from Rome.
  Ambrose Bierce

en Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? / And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

en I gave them a story about how the mustang and the saint were friends — just like Cedar Grove and us. But when the Saint passed away, the mustang had to give the eulogy. Nobody knew how the saint died except the mustang. The mustang was the only one who really knew how the saint died.

en SAINT, n. A dead sinner revised and edited. The Duchess of Orleans relates that the irreverent old calumniator, Marshal Villeroi, who in his youth had known St. Francis de Sales, said, on hearing him called saint: "I am delighted to hear that Monsieur de Sales is a saint. He was fond of saying indelicate things, and used to cheat at cards. In other respects he was a perfect gentleman, though a fool."
  Ambrose Bierce

en The program is called 'Miracles on the Mountainside,' and truly you do see miracles. A person's mindset can change so much from the first day of the clinic to the last.

en Miracles, in the sense of phenomena we cannot explain, surround us on every hand: life itself is the miracle of miracles.
  George Bernard Shaw

en After all, I don't see why I am always asking for private, individual, selfish miracles when every year there are miracles like white dogwood.
  Anne Morrow Lindbergh

en It is a fascinating period, but people are expecting miracles - and miracles just don't happen, ... We have to be realistic about how fast we can change.

en Men say I am a saint losing himself in politics. The fact is that I am a politician trying my hardest to become a saint.
  Mahatma Gandhi
