If instead of a gem, or even a flower, we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend, that would be giving as the angels give.

The hours I spend with you I look upon as sort of a perfumed garden, a dim twilight, and a fountain singing to it. You and you alone make me feel that I am alive. Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough.
George Edward Moore, English Philosopher (1873-1958)
Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.
Jim Morrison, American Musician (1943-1971)
Sickness, insanity and death were the angels that surrounded my cradle and they have followed me throughout my life.

Disease, insanity, and death were the angels that attended my cradle, and since then have followed me throughout my life.
Edvard Munch, Norwegian Artist (1863-1944)
Joyce for all his devotion to his art, terrible in its austerity, was a lad born with a song on one side of him, a dance on the other; two gay guardian angels every human ought to have.

Origen, Theologian
Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us.
Thomas Paine, English Writer (1737-1809)
The dreams which reveal the supernatural are promises and messages that God sends us directly: they are nothing but His angels, His ministering spirits , who usually appear to us when we are in a great predicament.
