1 quotation from Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), with the subject each one is filed under.

God nothing does nor suffers to be done But thou wouldst do thyself if thou couldst see The end of all things here as well as He. He who cannot see the workings of a Divine wisdom in the order of the heavens, the change of the seasons, the flowing of the tides, the operations of the wind and other elements, the structure of the human body, the circulation of the blood through a variety of vessels wonderfully arranged and conducted, the instinct of beasts, their tempers and dispositions, the growth of plants, and their many effects for meat and medicine; he who cannot see all these and many other things as the evident contrivance of a Divine wisdom is sottishly blind, and unworthy the name of man.— filed under God's Omniscience
