“Many things have changed in our culture here in England as a direct result of the Pistols: the whole street-fashion thing in London, for example, or the coverage of popular culture in the national press, or the fact that the film industry is now about young people making films about young British issues.” PeopleWholeFactsFilmYoungCultureResultsIssuesStreetsFashionExampleChangedIndustryDirectEnglandPressesBritishLondonCoveragePopular CultureFilm IndustryPistolsThings Have Changed Author:Julien Temple
“If thou desire to see thy child virtuous, let him not see his father's vices: thou canst not rebuke that in them, that they behold practised in thee; till reason be ripe, examples direct more than precepts: such as thy behaviour is before thy children's faces, such commonly is theirs behind their parents' backs.” IfsChildrenReasonFacesDesireFatherParentBehindsExampleDirectVicesTheeVirtuousBehaviourRipeRebuke Author:Francis Quarles

“That this subject [of imaginary magnitudes] has hitherto been considered from the wrong point of view and surrounded by a mysterious obscurity, is to be attributed largely to an ill-adapted notation. If, for example, +1, -1, and the square root of -1 had been called direct, inverse and lateral units, instead of positive, negative and imaginary (or even impossible), such an obscurity would have been out of the question.” IfsHas BeensViewsImpossibleSubjectsExampleNegativeDirectRootsIllPoint Of ViewMysteriousSquaresImaginaryUnitsObscurityMagnitudeAdaptedInverseSquare Roots Author:Carl Friedrich Gauss
“One of my favorite scriptures is Proverbs 3:5-6: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path.” That's a perfect example of trust. Sometimes you can trust and hope that everything is going to be rosy and God doesn't promise that. He promises that He's got our backs and He's prepared a place for us.” WayHeartSometimesUnderstandingPerfectLordPathExamplePromiseDirectPreparedMy FavoriteScriptureAcknowledgeRosyTrust In The LordAcknowledge Him Author:Mike Fisher
“When you travel from your own country to another country for a long period, you do become aware of the differences. For example, verbal expression is much more important in France - in Finland people don't speak so much. Also, Finnish people say things directly; that kind of direct honesty would be very impolite in France.” PeopleKindLongImportantCountryWould BeSpeakDifferencesHonestyExampleExpressionPeriodsDirectFranceFinnishFinland Author:Kaija Saariaho
