b4574be You shall see rude and sturdy, experienced and wise men, keeping their castles, or teaming up their summer's wood, or chopping alone in the woods, men fuller of talk and rare adventure in the sun and wind and rain, than a chestnut is of meat; who were out not only in '75 and 1812, but have been out every day of their lives; greater men than Homer, or Chaucer, or Shakespeare, only they never got time to say so; they never took to the way of writing. Look at their fields, and imagine what they might write, if ever they should put pen to paper. Or what have they not written on the face of the earth already, clearing, and burning, and scratching, and harrowing, and plowing, and subsoiling, in and in, and out and out, and over and over, again and again, erasing what they had already written for want of parchment. inspirational-life life-philosophy nature transcendence work Henry David Thoreau

7903dc3 If God on the Cross is God shamming a human tragedy, it turns the Passion of Christ into the Farce of Christ. The death of the Son must be real. Father Martin assured me it was. But once a dead God, always a dead God, even resurrected. The Son must have the taste for death forever in His mouth. The Trinity must be tainted by it; there must be a certain stench at the right hand of God the Father. The horror must be real. Why would God wish that upon Himself? Why not leave death to the mortals? Why make dirty what is beautiful, spoil what is perfect? Love. That was Father Martin's answer. inspirational-life inspirational-love inspirational-quotes jesus love Yann Martel

0665c6e "With the decline of the United States as the world's leader, I find it important to look around our globe for intelligent people who have the depth of understanding that could perhaps chart a way to the future. One such person is Bernard-Henri Levy a French philosopher who was born in Beni Saf, French Algeria on November 5, 1948. . The Boston Globe has said that he is "perhaps the most prominent intellectual in France today." Although his published work and political activism has fueled controversies, he invokes thought provoking insight into today's controversial world and national views. As a young man and Zionist he was a war correspondent for "Combat" newspaper for the French Underground. Following the war Bernard attended Lycee Louis-le-Grand in Paris and in 1968; he graduated with a degree in philosophy from the famous Ecole Normale Superieure. This was followed by him traveling to India where he joined the International Brigade to aid Bangladeshi freedom fighters. inspirational-life intelligence musings phlosophy quotes-on-life words-to-inspire-you Captain Hank Bracker "Salty & Saucy Maine"
