“Popular piety is one of our strengths because it consists of prayers deeply rooted in people's hearts. These prayers even move the hearts of people who are somewhat cut off from the life of the Church and who have no special understanding of faith. All that is required is to 'illuminate' these actions and 'purify' this tradition so that it may become part of the life of the Church today.” PeopleHeartMayTodayActionMovingUnderstandingChurchPrayerCuttingSpecialTraditionRootedPietyChurch Today Book:Questions and Answers Source: Questions and Answers
“The old Indian teaching was that is is wrong to tear loose from its place on the earth anything that may be growing there. It may be cut off, but it should not be uprooted. The trees and the grass have spirits. Whatever one of such growth may be destroyed by some good Indian, his act is done in sadness and with a prayer for forgiveness because of his necessities.” ShouldMayDoneEarthSpiritGrowthPrayerCuttingGrowingTreeSadnessTeachingTearsDestroyedIndianGrassNativeNative AmericanStewardshipNative AmericaNative American IndianGreat Native AmericanNative American Earth Author:Wooden Leg
“As you may know, KFC is under worldwide pressure to eliminate its cruelest abuses of chickens, such as cutting the beaks off baby birds; breeding chickens to grow so large, so quickly that many suffer crippling injuries; and slitting the birds' throats or dropping them into tanks of scalding-hot water while they are still alive and able to feel pain.” KnowsFeelsMayStillsAblePainSufferingGrowsWaterCuttingAliveBabyBirdAbusePressureHotInjuryChickensThroatDroppingTanksBreedingHot WaterBeaksKfc Author:Pamela Anderson

“In collage you're doing it in stages so you're not actually doing it right there. You first of all draw it on the paper, then you cut it up, then you paste it down, then you change it, then you shove it about, then you may paint bits of it over, so actually you're not making the picture there and then, you're making it through a process, so it's not so spontaneous.” FirstsMayBitsProcessCuttingStagePaperDrawsPaintSpontaneousCollages Book:Paula Rego Source: Paula Rego

“Fashion is not style. Nay, we can say more: Fashion is instead of style. Style is an idiom springing spontaneously from the personality but deliberately maintained. If you have no personality, you may be able to save your face and, possibly, your entire anatomy by following the current fashion, but all we shall know about you, when we see you coming down the street, is that you had enough money to buy a glossy magazine and were sufficiently cunning to work out the cut of the garments shown therein.” IfsKnowsMayEnoughAbleFacesCuttingStreetsFashionStylePersonalityCurrentsFollowingWork OutMagazinesYour FaceCunningGarmentsHad EnoughAnatomyIdiom Author:Quentin Crisp
“I think Miss Moore was right to cut "The Steeple-Jack" - the poem seems plainer and clearer in its shortened state but she has cut too much... The reader may feel like saying, "Let her do as she pleases with the poem; it's hers, isn't it?" No; it's much too good a poem for that, it long ago became everybody's, and we can protest just as we could if Donatello cut off David's left leg.” IfsThinkingFeelsMayLongStatesSeemsLeftToo MuchCuttingMissingReaderPleaseLegsProtestLong AgoSteeplesDonatello Author:Randall Jarrell
