“Yes, great God, these torrents of tears which flow down from my eyes announce thy divine presence in my soul. This heart hitherto so dry, so arid, so hard; this rock which thou hast struck a second time, will not resist thee any longer, for out of it there now gushes healthful waters in abundance. The selfsame voice of God which overturns the mountains, thunders, lightens, and divides the heaven above, now commands the clouds to pour forth showers of blessings, changing the desert of his soul into a field producing a hundredfold; that voice I hear.” HeartSoulHardGodEyeHeavenVoiceWaterRocksFieldsTearsDivineBlessingMountainFlowCloudsCommandMy SoulTheeDesertDryAbundanceDividesShowersThunderVoice Of God Author:Jean Baptiste Massillon

“For the most part, of course, the presence of the great spiritual universe surrounding us is no more noticed by us than the pressure of air on our bodies, or the action of light. Our field of attention is not wide enough for that; our spiritual senses are not sufficiently alert. Most people work so hard at developing their correspondence with the visible world, that their power of correspondence with the invisible is left in a rudimentary state.” PeopleWorldHardStatesEnoughBodyLightActionSpiritualUniverseCoursesLeftAttentionSeeingAirFieldsPressureWideSensesInvisibleDevelopingVisibleCorrespondenceGreat Spiritual Author:Evelyn Underhill

“One day he [Wagner] was batting against a young pitcher who had just come into the league. The catcher was a kid, too . The pitcher threw Honus a curve ball, and he swung at it and missed and fell down. Looked helpless as a robin. I was kind of surprised, but the guy sitting next to me poked me in the ribs and said, 'Watch this next one.' Those kids figured they had the old man's weakness, you see, and served him up the same dish - as he knew they would. Well, Honus hit a line drive so hard the fence in left field went back and forth for five minutes.” MenWellsKindSaidHardKidsYoungGuyNextLeftLinesWatchesFiveMinutesFieldsOne DayWeaknessSittingBallsLeagueOld ManDishesHelplessFenceCurvesFive MinutesBack And ForthPitcherRobinsRibsBattingCatchersWagnerLeft Field Author:Burleigh Grimes
“Every woman knows what I'm talking about. It’s the presumption that makes it hard, at times, for any woman in any field; that keeps women from speaking up and from being heard when they dare; that crushes young women into silence by indicating, the way harassment on the street does, that this is not their world. It trains us in self-doubt and self-limitation just as it exercises men’s unsupported overconfidence.” KnowsMenWorldWayDoeSelfHardYoungSilenceTalkingDoubtHeardStreetsFieldsExerciseTrainDareLimitationCrushYoung WomenHarassmentPresumptionSelf-doubtSpeaking UpOverconfidence Author:Rebecca Solnit
“I started learning my lessons in Abbot Texas, where I was born in 1933. My sister Bobbie and I were raised by our grandparents [...] We never had enough money, and Bobbie and I started working at an early age to help the family get by. That hard work included picking cotton. [...] Picking cotton is hard and painful work, and the most lasting lesson I learned in the fields was that I didn't want to spend my life picking cotton.” WantHardEnoughHelpingAgeBornFieldsHard WorkLessonsRaisedPainfulLastingTexasMy SisterGrandparentHad EnoughCotton Author:Willie Nelson

“Congratulations to the Auburn team and coach Malzahn. The piece for us was that we took some first and ten's and could not get a third down conversion. We kept putting the defense on the field. We tackled, we played hard, but offensively we did not execute. We are a work in progress. Certainly a group of men that are committed to fixing things.
