“The true Christians are the true citizens, lofty of purpose, resolute in endeavor, ready for a hero's deeds, but never looking down on their task because it is cast in the day of small things; scornful of baseness, awake to their own duties as well as to their rights, following the higher law with reverence, and in this world doing all that in their power lies, so that when death comes they may feel that humanity is in some degree better because they lived.” WorldFeelsWellsMayChristianLawLyingPurposeHumanityChristianityRightsThis WorldReadyDutyHeroHigherCitizensDegreesTasksCastsFollowingDeedsAwakeEndeavorReverenceSmall ThingsLoftyResoluteLooking DownBasenessHigher Law Author:Theodore Roosevelt

“When we see the many grave-stones which have fallen in, which have been defaced by the footsteps of the congregation, which lie buried under the ruins of the churches, that have themselves crumbled together over them; we may fancy the life after death to be as a second life, into which man enters in the figure, or the picture or the inscription, and lives longer there than when he was really alive. But this figure also, this second existence, dies out too, sooner or later. Time will not allow himself to be cheated of his rights with the monuments of men or with themselves.” MenMayHas BeensTogetherLyingDiesChurchExistenceAliveRightsFiguresHe ManStonesGravesRuinsFallenFancyBuriedSooner Or LaterLong LifeMonumentAfter DeathFootstepsCheatedCongregationLife After DeathInscriptions Author:Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

This counterassault is largely insidious: in a kind of pop-culture version of the Big Lie, it stands the truth boldly on its head and proclaims that the very steps that have elevated women's position have actually led to their downfall.” KindHardBigsLastsLyingCultureWinningPowerfulStepsRightsFeminismMovementPositionVictoryFeministPopsDecadesVersionsManageWomens RightsHandfulPop CultureDownfallInsidiousBacklashFeminist Movement Book:Backlash: the undeclared war against American women Source: Backlash: the undeclared war against American women

“When our laws tell people that what lies behind the thin wall of a women's abdomen during pregnancy is not a human being and that the destiny of a preborn child lies with the private conscience of the mother, we are essentially telling society that life itself is not important enough to be called an inalienable right.
