“In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining, May my lot no less fortunate be Than a snug elbow-chair can afford for reclining, And a cot that o'erlooks the wide sea; With an ambling pad-pony to pace o'er the lawn, While I carol away idle sorrow, And blithe as the lark that each day hails the dawn, Look forward with hope for to-morrow.” LooksMaySeaTomorrowSorrowWideFortunateDawnEach DayChairsPaceIdleLawnsElbowsMorrowHailPadsCarolsPoniesLarksLess FortunateBlithe Author:John Churton Collins
“To better understand God we must first shatter our own idea of God - maybe even day after day. Maybe he's too great to stay compressed in the human mind. Maybe he splits it wide open; this is why pretentious intellectualism so often fails to comprehend the concept of God: it is only accepting of what it can explain while in the process finding higher sources offensive. What we may confidently assert is that faith is the opening that allows God, this unpredictable, unseen power, to travel in and out of the mind without all the pains of confusion.” MindFirstsHumansMayIdeasPainProcessAcceptingFailingSourceHigherFindingsConceptsWideOpeningConfusionHuman MindSplitsOffensiveUnseenUnpredictablePretentiousIntellectualism Author:Criss Jami
“One cannot celebrate books sufficiently. After saying his best, still something better remains to be spoken in their praise. As with friends, one finds new beauties at every interview, and would stay long in the presence of those choice companions. As with friends, he may dispense with a wide acquaintance. Few and choice. The richest minds need not large libraries.” NeedsMindMayLongStillsBookChoicesPraiseRemainsLibraryWideCelebrateInterviewsCompanionAcquaintanceSomething BetterLibrary Books Book:Table-talk Source: Table-talk
