“Every one ought to study the Bible with two ends in view: his own growth in knowledge and grace, and passing it on to others. We ought to have four ears,- two for ourselves, and two for other people. My Bible is worth a good deal to me because I have so many passages marked that, if I am called upon to speak at any time, I am ready. We ought to be prepared to pass around heavenly thoughts and truths, just as we do the coin of the realm.” PeopleIfsTwoEndsChristianSpeakGrowthViewsDealsStudyGraceFourReadyOughtEarsPreparedPassingPassingsRealmsHeavenlyPassagesBe PreparedCoinsPassing It Book:Talks to Christians Source: Talks to Christians

“An imbecile habit has arisen in modern controversy of saying that such and such a creed can be held in one age but cannot be held in another. Some dogma, we are told, was credible in the twelfth century, but is not credible in the twentieth. You might as well say that a certain philosophy can be believed on Mondays, but cannot be believed on Tuesdays. You might as well say of a view of the cosmos that it was suitable to half-past three, but not suitable to half-past four. What a man can believe depends upon his philosophy, not upon the clock or the century.” MenBelieveWellsPhilosophyMightAgePastCertainThreeViewsHalfFourModernCenturyDependsHabitClockCosmosCreedsDogmaMondayControversySuitableTuesdayCredibleImbeciles Book:The Essential Gilbert K.

“Automobile is one of the most successful inventions of all time, but in my view, it is thoroughly obsolete already. And so by fundamentally rethinking the automobile, thinking of it as a robot on four wheels, essentially, something that can communicate with other intelligent devices, it can operate in a coordinated way, you can really start to fundamentally rethink urban personal mobility.” ThinkingWayViewsSuccessfulFourIntelligentCommunicateInventionAll TimeWheelsDevicesUrbanRobotsAutomobileObsoleteMobilityRethinking Author:William J.

“The desert came into view ... sand and palm trees, a way of life that revolved around human beings without possessions or skills, who had to rely on their imaginations to contrive a way of making their hearts beat faster or even to keep them at a normal pace; to search unaided for a hidden gleam of light, and to live with two seasons a year instead of four.” WayYearsHumansHeartTwoLightImaginationHuman BeingsViewsFourTreeSkillsNormalSurvivalBeatsSeasonsPossessionDesertFasterRelySandPacePalmsGleamHeart BeatPalm Trees Book:Women of Sand and Myrrh Source: Women of Sand and Myrrh

“Evolution has ensured that our brains just aren't equipped to visualise 11 dimensions directly.
