To have humility is to experience reality, not in relation to ourselves, but in its sacred independence. It is to see, judge, and act from the point of rest in ourselves. Then, how much disappears, and all that remains falls into place. In the point of rest at the center of our being, we encounter a world where all things are at rest in the same way.

It is odd to think that there is a word for something which, strictly speaking, does not exist, namely, "rest."

I do not ask any more delight—I swim in it, as in a sea.

For I could not be sure whether for the rest of my life I would be able to tell when it was really my mother and when it was really her shadow standing between me and the rest of the world.

Police have both extra constraints and extra permissions - on the one hand, they can't dodge involvement in social disorder as the rest of us can and they may be required to conduct themselves privately in a way that does not undermine their public authority; on the other hand, they have permission to engage in deceptions, invasions of privacy and uses of force that are forbidden to the rest of us.

But I can only rest for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not ended.

If you want to understand what's going to happen, you can't look in the rearview mirror into the United States' history, because that's done now.

We'll have a big march, then they'll have a big march, we'll have a big rally and they'll have a big rally. That will be one of the features. Again, a pro-regime and pro-opposition media system, that will become a feature.

Here's the thing. I hate kids. Always have.

If I have a biological clock, it is digital and does not tick.

Artemis was so angry, she stepped in and banished the Talpinas from us, and implemented the oh so wonderful you’re-only-supposed-to-sleep-with-them-once rule.

The moral absolutes rest upon God's character. The moral commands He has given to men are an expression of His character.
