“But come, hear my words, for truly learning causes the mind to grow. For as I said before in declaring the ends of my words: Twofold is the truth I shall speak; for at one time there grew to be the one alone out of many, and at another time it separated so that there were many out of the one; fire and water and earth and boundless height of air, and baneful Strife apart from these, balancing each of them, and Love among them, their equal in length and breadth.” MindSaidEndsEarthSpeakGrowsCausesWaterFireAirGrewEqualAnd LoveHeightLengthOne TimeStrifeBoundlessBreadthDeclaringAnother Time Author:Empedocles
“Santa Claus is a god. He's no less a god than Ahura Mazda, or Odin, or Zeus. Think of the white beard, the chariot pulled through the air by a breed of animal which doesn't ordinarily fly, the prayers (requests for gifts) which are annually mailed to him and which so baffle the Post Office, the specially-garbed priests in all the department stories. And don't gods reflect their creators' society? The Greeks had a huntress goddess, and gods of agriculture and war and love. What else would we have but a god of giving, of merchandising, and of consumption?” ThinkingGivingWarStoriesPrayerWhiteAnimalAirOfficeAnd LoveCreatorPostsGreekDepartmentPriestsGoddessConsumptionAgricultureSantaRequestBeardSanta ClausZeusChariotsPost OfficeOdinHuntressMerchandising Author:Donald E.
