“Kings ought never to be seen upon the stage. In the abstract, they are very disagreeable characters: it is only while living that they are 'the best of kings'. It is their power, their splendour, it is the apprehension of the personal consequences of their favour or their hatred that dazzles the imagination and suspends the judgement of their favourites or their vassals; but death cancels the bond of allegiance and of interest; and seen AS THEY WERE, their power and their pretensions look monstrous and ridiculous.” LooksCharacterInterestImaginationStageOughtKingsConsequenceHatredRidiculousJudgementAbstractFavourAllegianceMonstrousApprehensionPretensionDisagreeableDazzleSplendour Book:Characters of Shakespeare's Plays Source: Characters of Shakespeare's Plays

“Even when a person suffers pain in consequence of a thorn having entered into his hand, although it is at once drawn out, it is a punishment that has been inflicted on him, and the least pleasure he enjoys is a reward; all this is meted out by strict justice; as is said in the Scripture, "all His ways are judgement" (Deut. xxxii. 4); we are only ignorant of the working of that judgement.” WayPersonsHas BeensSaidHandsPainSufferingEnjoyJusticePleasureConsequenceRewardsScripturePunishmentIgnorantJudgementStrict Book:Guide for the perplexed Source: Guide for the perplexed

“Now I must live with the consequences of the choice I made. And I will not call it the wrong choice. That would be foolish and pointless. That choice led me to everything that has happened since, including this very moment, and the choices I make today or tomorrow or next week will lead me to the next and next present moments in my life. It is all a journey, Miss Jewell. I have come to understand that that is what life is all about-a journey and the courage and energy always to take the next step and the next without judgement about what was right and what was wrong.” MadeMomentsWould BeTodayLife IsChoicesNextEnergyStepsHappenedJourneyWeekMissingTomorrowConsequenceIncludingFoolishJudgementPresent MomentPointlessNext StepsLeading MeNext WeekWrong Choices Book:Simply Love Source: Simply Love
“Are you never afraid of God's judgement in denying him? Most certainly not. I also deny Zeus and Jupiter and Odin and Brahma, but this causes me no qualms. I observe that a very large portion of the human race does not believe in God and suffers no visible punishment in consequence. And if there were a God, I think it very unlikely that He would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt His existence.” IfsThinkingBelieveHumansDoeReligionSufferingCausesRaceExistenceDoubtConsequenceDenyPunishmentVanityHuman RaceJudgementVisibleBelieve In GodPortionsOffendedUnlikelyUneasyZeusJupiterBrahmaOdinQualms Author:Bertrand Russell
