Sophia Quotes

The existence of St Sophia is atmospheric; that of St Peter's, overpowering, imminently substantial.One is a church to God; the other a salon for his agents.One is consecrated to reality, the other to illusion. St Sophia, in fact, is large, and St Peter's is vilely, tragically small.

—Byron, Robert

It was too pathetic for the feelings of Sophia and myselföwe fainted alternately on the sofa.

—Austen,Jane
