“Worship demands the far distances of God; it protests against the little, the near, the material. It must love but it must look up. It cannot live without the note of spirituality and universality, if not mystery. The ascension, the passing of Christ within the veil, answers this need. So does a full-robed Christianity add to definiteness of knowledge the outreach of imagination and home.” IfsNeedsLooksLittlesDoeHomeSpiritualityChristImaginationAnswersChristianityMysteryMaterialsDemandWorshipDistanceAddNotesPassingPassingsLook UpProtestVeilsAscensionUniversalityOutreachFar Distance Book:Thoughts for Every-day Living from the Spoken and Written Words of Maltbie Davenport Babcock Source: Thoughts for Every-day Living from the Spoken and Written Words of Maltbie Davenport Babcock
“To whom one reports is a unit of measure. It measures the exact distance between the player and the center of power. It is the closest we can get to a calibrated answer to the question 'How big am I?' More than the size of an executive's office or even his title, which no one remembers anyway, the fewer people between the player and a 'yes,' the more powerful he is.” PeopleBigsRememberAnswersPowerfulPowerPlayerOfficeHollywoodDistanceSizeTitlesReportsExecutivesFewerClosestUnits Author:Lynda Obst
