Notable quotes

“Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light; which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.”
— Anonymous, in First Epistle of Peter 2:9 - 10 (traditionally attributed to Saint Peter); this is one of the passages through which Quakers indicate divine sanction of the universal priesthood of all believers.
“Mercy gestures — and the gesture speaks: Help yourself.”
— J. M. DeMatteis, Mercy (1993)
“It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truths announced in the Holy Scriptures, and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.”
— Abraham Lincoln, Proclamation for a Day of Fasting, Humiliation and Prayer (30 March 1863)
“In this life mercy and forgiveness is our way and evermore leadeth us to grace. And by the tempest and the sorrow that we fall into on our part, we be often dead as to man’s doom in earth; but in the sight of God the soul that shall be saved was never dead, nor ever shall be.”
— Julian of Norwich, Revelations of Divine Love (c. 1393), Ch. 50
“I’m trying to decide whether we can afford to be merciful. The Arbai were merciful, but when confronted with evil, mercy becomes an evil.”
— Sheri S. Tepper, Grass (1989), Chapter 16
“God loves our mercy to one another; but not upon conditions at variance with sanctity to Him.”
— James Martineau, p. 409
