“This is what metaphor is. It is not saying that an ant is an elephant. Perhaps; both are alive. No. Metaphor is saying the ant is an elephant. Now, logically speaking, I know there is a difference. If you put elephants and ants before me, I believe that every time I will correctly identify the elephant and the ant. So metaphor must come from a very different place than that of the logical, intelligent mind. It comes from a place that is very courageous, willing to step out of our preconceived ways of seeing things and open so large that it can see the oneness in an ant and in an elephant.” IfsKnowsWayMindBelieveDifferentI BelieveDifferencesStepsAliveSeeingWillingIntelligentMetaphorOnenessLogicalCourageousElephantsAntsDifferent Place Author:Natalie Goldberg

“There has been abroad many times some criticism of our Government, of our people, and our ways, but that has demonstrated, I think, that when they are in real trouble and real difficulty over there, they turn to us as a nation that will be fair with them--one in whose judgment and in whose character they can rely; and that not withstanding differences that have seemed to exist, they are willing to abide by the faith that they have in us, and I think that is a very substantial accomplishment.” PeopleThinkingWayHas BeensRealCharacterGovernmentTurnsNationsDifferencesTroubleWillingPrideJudgmentFairsCriticismDifficultyAccomplishmentRelyPatriotismWithstanding Author:Calvin Coolidge
“There is a great difference, then, between "power" and "authority." Power refers to one's ability to coerce others (through physical, economic, or other means) to do one's bidding. One can possess the means of power: physical strength, armaments, and money. But authority must be performed. Authority refers to one's ability to gain the trust and willing obedience of others. While power rests on intimidation, authority survives through inspiration.” MeanInspirationDifferencesAbilityPowerEconomicWillingAuthorityGainsObedienceIntimidationArmamentBiddingCoercePhysical Strength Book:No Sense of Place: The Impact of Electronic Media on Social Behavior Source: No Sense of Place: The Impact of Electronic Media on Social Behavior

“It is important to understand that there are two separate battles taking place in Iraq: there is the political rift between the Sunnis, Shia and the Kurds and there is a foreign extremist group - ISIS - trying to take advantage of the political environment through violence. If the Iraqis can resolve their political differences, it will be far more difficult for ISIS to thrive. Moving forward, we should continue to evaluate additional steps to help combat ISIS as we see what the Iraqis are willing to do politically, but we must also firmly guard against mission creep.” IfsShouldTryingTwoImportantHelpingMovingPoliticalDifficultDifferencesStepsEnvironmentViolenceGroupsMilitaryWillingBattleAdvantageIraqMissionsMoving ForwardThriveResolveCombatIsisCreepsEvaluateExtremistKurdsShiaRiftPolitical EnvironmentPolitical DifferencesExtremist Groups Author:David Adam Smith
