Did I read that right? Is that the King James spelling?! (Guess I'd always taken "quench" as figurative).

Unlike my ancient predecessor, this Tullius hasn't had his hands chopped off. With hands attached I offer my thoughts on philosophy, religion, politics, and whatever else I find worth mentioning. I'm conservative religiously and politically (with libertarian leanings). I value reason and freedom but also traditions and "Oldthink." I relish being on the wrong side of history when history is wrong--part of a philosopher's job is to be unpopular. (Views given here may not represent my employers')
I can never read (or hear) the word "quench" without thinking of Gatorade...sorry, guess I'm a child of my environment. Never would I use the word "quench" and "Holy Spirit" in the same expression.
ReplyDelete"Gatorade is church-aid, for that deep down body[-soul] thirst." Old school.
ReplyDeleteWell, they didn't use "quench" and "Holy Spirit" in the same expression either, so I guess you'd fit right in.
