When politicians presume to do God's work, they do not become divine but diabolical.
Lay your sleeping head, my love, Human on my faithless arm.
Civilizations should be measured by the degree of diversity attained and the degree of unity retained.
We would rather be ruined than changed. We would rather die in our dread than climb the cross of the moment and let our illusions die.

We are all here on earth to help others; what on earth the others are here for I don't know.
All that we are not stares back at what we are.
[Audubon's works are] the most splendid monuments which art has erected in honor of ornithology.
Jesus Christ left us an example for our daily conduct. He felt no bitter resentment and He held no grudge against anyone! Even those who crucified Him were forgiven while they were in the act.

Once you start deliberately offering thought, then you can never offer enough action to keep up with the thought. Once you access the Energy that creates worlds, a huge vortex comes into place, and there's just not enough action for you to keep up with that. And so, what you have to do is visualize every step of the way, envision you happy in the process. Envision things in place, envision people catching on. Just envision it working. Skip over the how and the where and the when and the who - and just stay focused upon the what and the why. Abraham
