“I have always loved music; whoso has skill in this art, is of a good temperament, fitted for all things. We must teach music in schools; a schoolmaster ought to have skill in music, or I would not regard him; neither should we ordain young men as preachers, unless they have been well exercised in music” MenShouldWellsHas BeensArtSchoolYoungTeachOughtSkillsArt IsAll ThingsRegardYoung ManPreacherTemperamentMusic In Schools Book:The Table Talk of Martin Luther Source: The Table Talk of Martin Luther
“Convictions that outcomes are determined by one's own actions can be either demoralizing or heartening, depending on the level of self-judged efficacy.

“Now in regard to trades and other means of livelihood, which ones are to be considered becoming to a gentleman and which ones are vulgar, we have been taught, in general, as follows. First, those means of livelihood are rejected as undesirable which incur people's ill-will, as those of tax-gatherers and usurers. Unbecoming to a gentleman, too, and vulgar are the means of livelihood of all hired workmen whom we pay for mere manual labour, not for artistic skill; for in their case the very wage they receive is a pledge of their slavery.” PeopleFirstsMeanHas BeensPayCasesTaughtBecomingSkillsTaxesRegardSlaveryTradeMereIllArtisticGentlemanLabourRejectedVulgarPledgeManualsLivelihoodWorkmenUndesirableIll WillUnbecomingManual Labour Book:Delphi Complete Works of Cicero (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of Cicero (Illustrated)

“The need of black conservatives to gain the respect of their white peers deeply shapes certain elements of their conservatism. In this regard, they simply want what most people want, to be judged by the quality of their skills, not by the color of their skin. But the black conservatives overlook the fact that affirmative action policies were political responses to the pervasive refusal of most white Americans to judge black Americans on that basis.” PeopleWantNeedsFactsActionPoliticalCertainBlackWhiteQualityPolicyColorJudgingShapesSkillsElementsGainsSkinsBasesRegardResponseJudgedPeersConservatismRefusalAffirmative ActionAffirmative Author:Cornel West
“For great are you, Lord, and you look kindly on what is humble, but the lofty-minded you regard from afar. Only to those whose hearts are crushed do you draw close.

“With cold eyes and indifferent mind the spectators regard the work. Connoissers admire the "skill" (as one admires a tightrope walker), enjoy the "quality of painting" (as one enjoys a pasty).
