“If one has the answers to all the questions - that is the proof that God is not with him. It means that he is a false prophet using religion for himself. The great leaders of the people of God, like Moses, have always left room for doubt. You must leave room for the Lord, not for our certainties; we must be humble.” PeopleIfsMeanLeftAnswersRoomsLeaderLordDoubtHumbleProofCertaintyProphetGreat LeaderMosesBe HumbleFalse Prophets Author:Pope Francis

“Thus, it comes to pass, that a certain room in a certain old hall, where a certain bad lord, baronet, knight, or gentleman, shot himself, has certain planks in the floor from which the blood will not be taken out. You may scrape and scrape, as the present owner has done, or plane and plane, as his father did, or scrub and scrub, as his grandfather did, or burn and burn with strong acids, as his great-grandfather did, but, there the blood will still be - no redder and no paler - no more and no less - always just the same.” MayStillsDoneCertainFatherStrongRoomsLordTakenBloodShotsPlanesGentlemanOwnersHallsGrandfatherKnightsAcidSpookyGreat Grandfather Book:Some Christmas Stories Source: Some Christmas Stories
“The House of Lords, architecturally, is a magnificent room, and the dignity, quiet, and repose of the scene made me unwillingly acknowledge that the Senate of the United States might possibly improve its manners.

“And how shall I call upon my God, my God and Lord, since, when I call for Him, I shall be calling Him to myself? and what room is there within me, whither my God can come into me? whither can God come into me, God who made heaven and earth? is there, indeed, O Lord my God, aught in me that can contain thee?” MadeEarthHeavenRoomsLordCallingTheeHeaven And Earth Book:The Confessions of Saint Augustine Source: The Confessions of Saint Augustine

“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
“Most of us really aren't horribly unique. There are 6 billion of us. Put 'em all in one room and very few would stand out as individuals.
