“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
“Talent has the four seasons: spring, that is to say, the sowing of the seeds; summer, growth; autumn, the harvest; winter, intellectual death. But there is now and then a genius who has no winter, and, no matter how many years he may live, on the blossom of his thought no snow falls. Genius has the climate of perpetual growth.” YearsMayMatterFallGrowthFourTalentGeniusSummerIntellectualSpringSeasonsClimateWinterSeedsSnowAutumnNow And ThenPerpetualHarvestSowingFour SeasonsSnow Falling Book:The Works of Robert G.

“"Motherboard," for me, has four different levels: the bottom part is the water, vegetation, and growth. The second part is the world with figures and animals; there's chaos and civilization. The third part is the digital zone - these red things are turning into really loud digital sounds. Then the fourth level is like ether and things turning into air. This idea of how we're becoming partly digitalized is really interesting to me.” WorldIdeasDifferentSoundGrowthWaterAnimalInterestingLevelsFourAirFiguresBecomingCivilizationRedThirdsChaosBottomLoudZoneDigitalFourthReally InterestingDifferent LevelsVegetation Author:Ali Banisadr

“A four percent growth strategy means you fix a convoluted tax code. You get in and you change every aspect of regulations that are job killers.

“Start by scrapping the tax code. Don't fiddle with it. Junk it. Throw it out. Bury it.

“The more subtle thing is more speculative. The world is well past its long-term carrying capacity for human beings living a European, much less an American, lifestyle predicated on planned obsolescence.

Instead of saving and buying decent furniture we can pass on to our children, we charge our credit cards for shaped heaps of sawdust and glue that fall apart in less than three or four years.” WorldYearsHumansWellsChildrenLongMatterPastFallThreeGrowthTermHuman BeingsFourEconomicMovementMinesMaterialsCapacityOur ChildrenInternationalCreditLifestyleForestsCardsSavingLong TermDecentBuyingSubtleFour YearsFalling ApartFurnitureEconomic GrowthCredit CardDumpGlueObsolescenceSawdustPlanned Obsolescence Author:Denis Hayes
