“A marriage was like a house under constant construction, each year seeing the completion of new rooms. A first-year marriage was a cottage; one that had gone on for twenty-seven years was a huge and rambling mansion. There were bound to be crannies and storage spaces, most of them dusty and abandoned, some containing a few unpleasant relics you would just as soon you hadn't found. But that was no biggie. You either threw those relics out or took them to Goodwill.” YearsFirstsFoundHouseSpaceRoomsGoneSeeingHugeTwentiesConstantSevenBoundsAbandonedConstructionSeven YearsGoodwillCompletionMansionsCottagesContainingStorageRelicsRamblingBiggieFirst Year MarriageStorage Space Book:A Good Marriage Source: A Good Marriage
“If you and I got on an airplane, you're going to L.A., Los Angeles, and I'm going to Senegal, we get there about the same time. The world is just that small. So a world that is so tightly bound by science and technology and now Internet and the web page, that world is too small for bullies. It has no room in that world for arrogance.” IfsWorldRoomsTechnologyInternetPagesBoundsArroganceLos AngelesAirplaneBullyScience And TechnologyWeb Page Author:Jesse Jackson
“That is what diminishes the artist and his song. The artist is now hermetically sealed. The publishing company got him his deal and they expect to profit from his songs. So what if he is a better singer than a songwriter; let's put him in a room with a real songwriter. Something great is bound to come...except very often nothing great comes out of such contrived match-ups. Nobody knows where a great song comes from, and that's why so many writers credit the Lord as a co-writer (though I notice they never offer Him half the writer's royalties) when they come up with a real gem.” IfsKnowsWritingRealArtistSongRoomsDealsHalfCompanyLordOffersBoundsCome UpProfitCreditSingersWhat IfSongwritingPublishingSongwritersDiminishRoyaltyNobody KnowsGems Author:Michael Kosser
