“When children ask you questions about gray hairs, and wrinkles in the face, and sighs that have no words, and smiles too bright to be carved upon the radiant face by the hands of hypocrisy--when they ask you about kneeling at the altar, speaking into the vacant air, and uttering words to an unseen and in an invisible Presence--when they interrogate you about your great psalms, and hymns, and anthem-bursts of thankfulness, what is your reply to these? Do not be ashamed of the history. Keep steadily along the line of fact. Say what happened to you, and magnify God in the hearing of the inquirer.” ChildrenFactsHandsFacesAsksLinesHappenedAirHairHearingInvisibleHypocrisyAshamedGrayUnseenSighThankfulnessAltarsWrinklesRadiantHymnsPsalmsAnthemVacantKneelingGray HairInquirers Author:Joseph Parker
“I don’t know what happened through the ’80s, ’90s, and ’00s that took feminism off the table, that made it something that women weren’t supposed to identify with and were supposed to be ashamed of. Feminism is about the fight for equality between the sexes, with equal respect, equal pay, and equal opportunity. At the moment we are still a long way off that.” KnowsWayLongMadeStillsMomentsFightingOpportunitySexPayHappenedFeminismEqualTablesMade ItSupposed To BeAshamed80sLong WayEqual OpportunityEqual PayEqual Respect Author:Keira Knightley
“I'm just made differently. Man, I just love being an American, I love my country. But it happened to me during the Nixon time, especially pre-Watergate, that as I watched Nixon for the first time in my life I felt shame. I had to analyze myself. What is this emotion? I realized that my government was separate from my country. It was the first time I ever felt ashamed of the government, not the country.” MenFirstsMadeCountryGovernmentFeltLove IsEmotionHappenedFirst TimeShameI RealizedAshamedWatergate Author:John Fogerty
