“Take the particular trick of false names. It seems to us particularly odious. We think when we show our contempt for those who use this subterfuge that we are giving them no more than they deserve. It is a meanness which we associate with criminals and vagabonds; a piece of crawling and sneaking...Men whose race is universally known, will unblushingly adopt a false name as a mask, and after a year or two pretend to treat it as an insult if their original and true name be used in its place.” IfsThinkingMenGivingYearsTwoUseShowsSeemsUsedNamesRaceKnownPiecesParticularDeserveTreatsOriginalsJewCriminalsTricksInsultMaskContemptAssociatesMeannessCrawlingVagabondsSubterfuge Book:The Jews Source: The Jews
“Appreciation is the oil that lubricates life and keeps your wheels turning easily and freely. Without appreciation, your wheels will still spin, but they are apt to become rusted with resentment and exhaustion. Since there is great truth in the well-known statement "We teach people how to treat us," you can start teaching others to shower you with appreciation by showering yourself first.” PeopleFirstsWellsStillsKnownTeachTeachingAwarenessTreatsAppreciationOilStatementsWheelsResentmentShowersWell KnownExhaustionTeaching OthersWheels Turning Author:Sue Thoele
“I was pretty impressed during the opening of one of my shows, when the five-year-old daughter of a well-known movie actress took a running jump at one of my paintings, like she was diving into a swimming pool.

Sadly she hurt herself more than the painting.” YearsWellsChildrenShowsRunningHurtKnownFivePaintingDaughterTreatsActressesOpeningImpulseFive YearsInsultComplimentSwimmingPoolImpressedWell KnownDivingFive Year OldsSwimming Pool Author:James Nares

“Better that right counsels be known to enemies than that the evil secrets of tyrants should be concealed from the citizens.

“The task of all Christian scholarship—not just biblical studies—is to study reality as a manifestation of God’s glory, to speak and write about it with accuracy, and to savor the beauty of God in it, and to make it serve the good of man. It is an abdication of scholarship when Christians do academic work with little reference to God. If all the universe and everything in it exist by the design of an infinite, personal God, to make his manifold glory known and loved, then to treat any subject without reference to God’s glory is not scholarship but insurrection.” IfsMenWritingLittlesRealityChristianUniverseSpeakKnownStudySubjectsDesignGloryTasksTreatsInfiniteManifestationAcademicBiblicalScholarshipAccuracyManifoldInsurrectionAbdicationAcademic Work Book:Think Source: Think

“Stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you Are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here, And you must treat it as a powerful stranger, Must ask permission to know it and be known. The forest breathes. Listen. It answers, I have made this place around you, If you leave it you may come back again, saying Here. No two trees are the same to Raven. No two branches are the same to Wren. If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you, You are surely lost. Stand still. The forest knows Where you are. You must let it find you.” IfsKnowsMayDoeMadeStillsTwoAsksLostAnswersPowerfulKnownTreeTreatsStrangerBreatheForestsBranchesWhere You ArePermissionBack AgainRavensWherever You AreBeside YouWrensTwo Trees Book:Traveling Light: Collected and New Poems Source: Traveling Light: Collected and New Poems
