“For reasons that are both fair and foul - but mostly for fair reasons - we have come under the domain of a scientific-management system whose ambitions are endless. They want to manage every second of our lives, every expenditure that we make. And the schools are the training ground to create a population that's easy to manage.” WantReasonSchoolEasyOur LivesAmbitionTrainingFairsManagementPopulationEndlessManageDomainFoulEvery SecondExpendituresManagement Systems Author:John Taylor Gatto
“We value love not because it's stronger than death but because it's weaker. Say what you want about love: death will finish it. You will not go on loving in the grave, not in any physical way that will at all resemble love as we know it on earth. The perishable nature of love is what gives love its importance in our lives. If it were endless, if it were on tap, love wouldn't hit us the way it does.” IfsKnowsWayWantLoveGivingDoeEarthValuesLove IsOur LivesGoes OnImportanceStrongerWhat You WantGravesEndlessLove Death Author:Jeffrey Eugenides

“God of our life, there are days when the burdens we carry chafe our shoulders and weigh us down; when the road seems dreary and endless, the skies gray and threatening; when our lives have no music in them, and our hearts are lonely, and our souls have lost their courage. Flood the path with light, run our eyes to where the skies are full of promise; tune our hearts to brave music; give us the sense of comradeship with heroes and saints of every age; and so quicken our spirits that we may be able to encourage the souls of all who journey with us on the road of life, to your honor and glory.” GivingHeartMaySoulLightSeemsEyeRunningAgeAbleSpiritLostPathOur LivesJourneySkyHeroHonorPromiseGloryLonelyBraveSaintBurdenEndlessShouldersTunesGrayFloodThreateningDrearyComradeshipYour Honor Author:Saint Augustine
“From our limited vantage point, our lives are marked by an endless series of contingencies. We frequently find ourselves, instead of acting as we planned, reacting to an unexpected turn of events. We make plans but are often forced to change those plans. But there are no contingencies with God. Our unexpected, forced change of plans is a part of His plan. God is never surprised; never caught off guard; never frustrated by unexpected developments. God does as He pleases and that which pleases Him is always for His glory and our good.” DoeTurnsActingOur LivesPlansEventsDevelopmentPleaseGlorySeriesCaughtEndlessUnexpectedFrustratedReactingContingencyVantage PointUnexpected Turns Book:Trusting God Source: Trusting God
