“It is a fact that unless children are brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, they, and the society which they constitute or control, will go to destruction. Consequently, when a state resolves that religious instruction shall be banished from the schools and other literary institutions, it virtually resolves on self-destruction.” ChildrenSelfStatesGodFactsSchoolReligionReligiousEducationLordSocietyDestructionInstitutionsResolveInstructionNurtureTheologianSelf DestructionTeaching ChildrenAdmonitionBanishmentReligious EducationChristian Education Book:Systematic Theology Source: Systematic Theology
“As for women that do not think their own safety worth their thought, that impatient of their present state, resolve as they call it to take the first good Christian that comes; that runs into matrimony, as a horse rushes into battle; I can say nothing to them, but this, that they are a sort of ladies that are to be pray'd for among the rest of distemper'd people; and to me they look like people that venture their whole estates in a lottery where there is a hundred thousand blanks to one prize.” PeopleThinkingFirstsLooksI CanStatesWholeRunningChristianWomenPrayingBattleThousandHundredHorseSafetyPrizeResolveEstatesVentureImpatientLotteryMatrimonyGood Christian Book:The works of Daniel De Foe [ed.] by W.

“Actions are interesting to watch. I learn about the actors. Their movements are emblems of the tensions in this internal landscape, which their actions resolve. About-to-act is an interesting state to experience, because I am conscious of just those tensions. Acting itself feels fairly dull; it not only resolves, it obliterates those tensions from my consciousness. Acting is only interesting as it leads to new tensions that, irrelevantly, cause me to act again.” FeelsStatesActionActorsCausesInterestingActingConsciousnessWatchesMovementConsciousLandscapeTensionDullInternalsResolveEmblems Book:Dhalgren Source: Dhalgren
