“Is it appropriate still for a German to have a gun? I only use that as an example of a country that's still deeply involved and engaged in the conversations about how to come to terms with the past. Certainly for that country, it's not forgotten.” StillsCountryUsePastTermExampleInvolvedConversationGunForgottenEngagedAppropriate Author:Stephen Daldry
“I discovered that I had, in the past two decades, written a far greater amount in the essay form than I remembered. Certainly I have written enough of it to demonstrate that I harbor no disdain for literary journalism or just plain journalism, under whose sponsorship I have been able to express much that has fascinated me, or alarmed me, or amused me, or otherwise engaged my attention when I was not writing a book.” WritingHas BeensTwoBookEnoughAblePastFormAttentionGreaterWrittenAmountDecadesJournalismRememberedEngagedFascinatedEssaysHarborsWriting A BookAmusedDisdainSponsorship Book:This Quiet Dust and Other Writings Source: This Quiet Dust and Other Writings
“God must have been engaged from the beginning, and must now be engaged in progressive development, and infinite as God is, he must have been less powerful in the past than he is today.... We may be certain that, through self-effort, the inherent and innate powers of God have been developed to a God-like degree. Thus he has become God.” MayHas BeensSelfTodayPastCertainPowerfulEffortDevelopmentDegreesInfiniteEngagedProgressiveInherentInnatePower Of God Author:John Andreas Widtsoe
“From youth to middle, and often to past middle, age, most men are apt to be too closely engaged in the struggle of life to pay due attention to the strength of the body. They may take daily what they consider a sufficient amount of exercise; but the exercise is not calculated to keep the various limbs and muscles, still less the internal organs, in proper working order. Amid the ordinary concerns of life the man may appear strong, even stalwart. But when occasion arises for some special muscular exercise, or taxing the action of some organ, he finds out his weakness.” MenMayStillsBodyAgeActionPastOrderStrongPayAttentionStruggleMiddleSpecialYouthHe ManAmountExerciseOrdinaryWeaknessConcernVariousDuesAriseOccasionsSufficientEngagedMusclesInternalsOrgansLimbsMiddle AgesLife StruggleStalwart Author:Richard A.
