John Calvin Quote

There is not one little blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make men rejoice.


As quoted in The Value of Convenience: Genealogy of Technical Culture (1993) by Thomas F. Tierney, p. 128; variant translation: There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make us rejoice.


There is not one little blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make men rejoice.

There is not one little blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make men rejoice.

There is not one little blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make men rejoice.

There is not one little blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make men rejoice.
