“When [men] see a pretty woman, and feel the delicious madness of love coming over them, they always stop to calculate her temper, her money, their own money, or suitableness for the married life.... Ha, ha, ha! Let us fool in this way no more. I have been in love forty-three times with all ranks and conditions of women, and would have married every time if they would have let me. How many wives had King Solomon, the wisest of men? And is not that story a warning to us that Love is master of the wisest? It is only fools who defy him.” IfsMenWayLoveFeelsHas BeensStoriesThreeLove IsWifeConditionsMastersFoolKingsMarriedLet MeMadnessFortyWarningTemperDeliciousThree TimesWisestMarried LifeBeen In LoveSolomonPretty Woman Author:William Makepeace Thackeray
“Physically, we get older and then we die. Yet spiritually, whether we go backward or forward is a matter not of the body but of consciousness. When we think about age differently, then our experience of it changes. We can be physically older but emotionally and psychologically younger. Some of us were in a state of decay in our 20s and are in a state of re-birth in our 60s or 70s. King Solomon, who supposedly was the wisest of all men, described his youth as his winter and his advanced years as his summer. We can be older than we used to be yet feel much younger than we are.” ThinkingMenFeelsYearsMatterStatesBodyAgeUsedDiesConsciousnessYouthBirthKingsSummerWinterUsed To BeDecayWisestSolomon Book:The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife: Easyread Super Large 20pt Edition Source: The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife: Easyread Super Large 20pt Edition

“King Solomon set out on a course to work and live without reference to God at all. He concluded that without God in the picture, work is empty.- (Ecc. 2:11)...

“[The Book of the Law]was lost for so many years. And then Josiah decided to celebrate Passover. The text says that "The Passover sacrifice had not been offered in that way ... during the days of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah" [2 Kings 23:22]. What do you mean? Not in the days of David and Solomon? Never before? And what of the days of the prophets? What happened? That's what I'm anguishing over. If the Book of the Law could be forgotten for so many years, who knows what was done to it during those years? Maybe it was lost later, too.” IfsKnowsWayYearsMeanBookDoneLawLostHappenedSacrificeKingsDecidedForgottenIsraelCelebrateProphetSolomonJudah Author:Elie Wiesel
