“The ancient man approached God (or even the gods)as the accused person approaches his judge. For the modern man the roles are reversed. He is the judge: God is in the dock. He is quite a kindly judge: if God should have a reasonable defense for being the god who permits war, poverty, and disease, he is ready to listen to it. The trial may even end in God's acquittal. But the important thing is that Man is on the bench and God is in the dock.” IfsMenShouldMayPersonsImportantWarEndsPovertyRolesModernReadyJudgingDiseaseApproachShould HaveImportant ThingsAncientDefenseTrialsReasonablePermitAccusedBenchesModern ManDocksAcquittal Author:C.

“Our ancestors, when about to build a town or an army post, sacrificed some of the cattle that were wont to feed on the site proposed and examined their livers. If the livers of the first victims were dark-coloured or abnormal, they sacrificed others, to see whether the fault was due to disease or their food. They never began to build defensive works in a place until after they had made many such trials and satisfied themselves that good water and food had made the liver sound and firm, healthfulness being their chief object.” IfsFirstsMadeSoundWaterDarkObjectsDiseaseArmyTownsVictimFaultsDuesTrialsSatisfiedChiefsPostsFirmAncestorSiteCattleLiverAbnormal Author:Marcus Vitruvius Pollio

“This pre-eminence is something [men] have unjustly arrogated to themselves. And when it's said that women must be subject to men, the phrase should be understood in the same sense as when we say we are subject to natural disasters, diseases, and all the other accidents of this life: it's not a case of being subjected in the sense of obeying, but rather of suffering an imposition, not a case of serving them fearfully, but rather of tolerating them in a spirit of Christian charity, since they have been given to us by God as a spiritual trial.” MenShouldHas BeensSaidChristianSpiritualSpiritSufferingGivenNaturalCasesSubjectsDiseaseUnderstoodCharityAccidentsDisasterTrialsThis LifePhrasesServingObeyingNatural DisasterImpositionEminence Author:Moderata Fonte
