Therefore there is nothing for us to do upon earth but to pray against this arch enemy without ceasing. For unless God preserved us, we would not be safe from him even for an hour.

RajneeshThe Bibleโs purpose is not so much to show you how to live a good life. The Bibleโs purpose is to show you how Godโs grace breaks into your life against your will and saves you from the sin and brokenness otherwise you would never be able to overcomeโฆ religion is โif you obey, then you will be acceptedโ. But the Gospel is, โif you are absolutely accepted, and sure youโre accepted, only then will you ever begin to obeyโ. Those are two utterly different things. Every page of the Bible shows the difference.

Whittaker ChambersWe treat racism in this country like it's a style that America went through. Like flared legs and lava lamps. Oh, that crazy thing we did. We were hanging black people.

Chris RockI feel badly for them, not sorry, but badly, because I think they've been given poor breaks and difficult, not sufficient opportunity to be who they are and sort of put into that straitjacket with the tie, and all of the things that is really built like a straitjacket when you look at it, and tied up in a sort of a way where their purpose had to be slimmed down to just certain things, and function pared down to the linear, and it is very difficult for men.
Maya TiwariReal isn't what they try to tell you. Time isn't. Grown-ups hammer down all these markers, bells, schedules, coffee-breaks, to stake down time so you'll start believing it's something small and mean, something that scrapes flake after flake off of everything you love till there's nothing left; to stake you down so you don't lift off and fly away, somersaulting through whirlpools of months, skimming through eddies of glittering seconds, pouring handfuls of hours over your upturned face.

Adam FaithWhere constraint breaks people, and mediation makes fools of them, the seduction of power is what makes them love their oppression. Because of it, people give up their real riches for a cause that mutilates them; for an appearance that reifies them; for roles that wrest them from authentic life; for a time whose passage defines and confines them.

Arthur SchopenhauerI believe American corporations that have gotten so much from our country should be just as patriotic in return. Many of them are, but too many aren't.

Erica JongThe thing I hear about a lot is when people over-sharpen their pencil with a single-blade pocket-sharpener and then when they put the pencil to the page, their tip breaks and pencil points always break irregularly. It always gets all jagged and you have to refresh the point. That's a common complaint.
