“Strange how it is that men never act crueler than when they're fighting for the sake of an idea. We've been killing since Cain over who stands closer to god. It seems to me that cruelty is just in the way of things. You drive yourself mad if you take it all personal. Those who hurt you don't have the power over you they would like. That's why they do what they do.” IfsMenWayIdeasSeemsFightingHurtStrangeMadKillingSakeCrueltyOver YouCainThose Who Hurt You Author:Marcel Theroux
“You, sleeping on your bed of nails. Weeping an ocean beyond the pale. Strange, sorrow is your greatest skill. You're suffering from overkill... Choose whether to laugh or to cry. Menace and promise mingle in your eye. Wait, it's only a matter of time. You know everything will be fine... Rain falls down and the seas run high. When you're by my side we can rise above it. Let me dry all the tears inside. On your way you cannot hide from the howling wind and the roaring tide. You might get hurt but your fears will subside when you at last escape from the tears inside.” KnowsWayMatterMightEyeRunningLastsSufferingFallWaitingSidesHurtSleepLaughingSeaCryTearsStrangeWindFineSorrowPromiseBedSkillsOceanRainLet MeDown AndDryTidesPaleNailsRise AboveWeepingFalling DownMenaceRoaringMatter Of TimeRise Above ItOverkillHowling Wind Author:Tim Finn
“God shows us in Himself, strange as it may seem, not only authoritative perfection, but even the perfection of obedience--an obedience to His own laws; and in the cumbrous movement of those unwieldiest of his creatures we are reminded, even in His divine essence, of that attribute of uprightness in the human creature "that sweareth to his own hurt and changeth not.” HumansMayGodShowsSeemsLawHurtMovementDivineStrangeCreaturesPerfectionEssenceObedienceAttributesUprightness Book:The seven lamps of architecture Source: The seven lamps of architecture
“I have no idea whether I am completely sane. I don't think anybody is. I see the world through my eyes. It's sometimes a strange world. I hope I don't hurt people.

“You have to want to listen to it, and then you can hear it. It has a strange, beautiful texture. It doesn't always talk. Sometimes-sometimes it cries, and you can hear the pain of the world in it. It hurts to listen to it then. But you have to.” WorldWantSometimesPainBeautifulHurtCryStrangeIt HurtsTexture Book:The Chosen Source: The Chosen
“It may sound strange, but many champions are made champions by setback. They are champions because they've been hurt. Their experience moved them, and they pulled out this fighting spirit, making them what they are. Sometimes in life, God gives us a difficulty in order to bring out the fighting spirit. Everything that happens to you can happen for good if you have this spirit. The essential thing in life is not in the conquering, but in the fight.” IfsGivingMayMadeSometimesHappensLife IsSpiritOrderFightingSportsSoundLeadershipHurtStrangeEssentialsDifficultyMovedConquerChampionThings In LifeFighting SpiritSetbackSometimes In LifeBeen HurtChampions Are Made Author:Bob Richards
