“The effect of our knowledge rather ought to be, first, to teach us reverence and fear; and, secondly, to induce us, under its guidance and teaching, to ask every good thing from [God], and, when it is received, ascribe it to him. For how can the idea of God enter your mind without instantly giving rise to the thought, that since you are his workmanship, you are bound, by the very law of creation, to submit to his authority?-\-\that your life is due to him?-\-\that whatever you do ought to have reference to him.” GivingMindFirstsIdeasLawLife IsAsksTeachTeachingEffectsCreationOughtAuthorityGood ThingsBoundsVery GoodDuesGuidanceReverenceSubmitWorkmanship Book:The Institutes Of The Christian Religion, Books First and Second Source: The Institutes Of The Christian Religion, Books First and Second
“I think that very often younger writers don't appreciate how much hard work is involved in writing. The part of writing that's magic is the thinnest rind on the world of creation. Most of a writer's life is just work. It happens to be a kind of work that the writer finds fulfilling in the same way that a watchmaker can happily spend countless hours fiddling over the tiny cogs and bits of wire. ... I think the people who end up being writers are people who don't get bored doing that kind of tight focus in small areas.” PeopleThinkingWorldWayWritingKindEndsHardHappensLife IsBitsHoursFocusMagicCreationHard WorkInvolvedAreasAppreciateTinyBoredWorking ItFulfillingWireCogs Author:Diane Ackerman
“Another thing about creation is that every day it is like it gave birth, and it's always kind of an innocent and refreshing. So it's always virginal to me, and it's always a surprise. ... Each piece seems to have a life of its own. Every little piece or every big piece that I make becomes a very living thing to me, very living. I could make a million pieces; the next piece gives me a whole new thing. It is a new center. Life is total at that particular time. And that's why it's right. That reaffirms my life.” GivingKindLittlesWholeBigsSeemsLife IsArtistNextMillionsPiecesCreationParticularBirthGive MeSurpriseInnocentNew ThingsLiving ThingsRefreshing Author:Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
