Quote by E.V. Drake

“Don't just stand there; comfort your wife!" Commanded by his entourage, the sleeves of his suit gripped by litle human ladies, he was presented to me. Caleb's reaction? Well, what would you expect of the fearless general? Yes, that's right, he pointed a finger at me in alarm. "Stop that!" he demanded. Boy, did that get a result. His little fandom glared in unison until his pointed finger turned to a gentle palm on my head. "Please," he murmured.”

“His fate was not in his own hands, it seemed to him. And it was not until much later that he came to realise that the reason it was not in his own hands was because, quite simply, he had never thought to grasp it and hold on. No-one had ever told him that he could.”

“Ganz recht, wer kanns wissen. Mancher Dummkopf wird Professor; manch kluger Kopf muß sich eine Kugel in den Kopf schießen. So ist das heutzutage. Und so wird es auch einige Zeit bleiben. Man muß sich schon überlegen, ob man Hoffnungen wecken soll, denen von vornherein die Armut schwer in Wege liegt… Da eröffnen sich verschiedenerlei wüste Perspektiven.”

“In fact, every intricate and untried path in life, where it was from the first a matter of arbitrary choice to enter upon it or avoid it, is effectually a path through a vast Hercynian forest, unexplored and unmapped, where each several turn in your advance leaves you open to new anticipations of that is next to be expected, and consequently open to altered valuations of all that has been already traversed. Even the character of your own absolute experience, past and gone, which (if any thing in this world) you might surely answer for as sealed and settled for ever - even this you must submit to hold in suspense, as a thing conditional and contingent upon what is yet come - liable to have its provisional character affirmed or reversed, according to the new combinations into which it may enter with elements only yet perhaps in the earliest stages of development.”

Surely the same principle applies to emotional gratification. He is still manifestly talking about the care and feeding of God. His God, like an insecure boyfriend, seems to need emotional stroking.”
