| 119b26c | When I say it's hard to believe in Jesus, I mean it's hard to believe in Jesus's ideas--in his way of saving the world. For Christians it's not hard to believe in Jesus as the Son of God, the Second Person of the Trinity--all the Christological stuff the church hammered out in the first five centuries. That's not hard for us. What's hard is to believe in Jesus as a political theologian. It's hard because his ideas for running the world are .. | Brian Zahnd | ||
| 945a904 | One of the problems with understanding what is meant by hell is that this tiny word has been forced to carry so much freight. Over the centuries it has picked up meanings often far removed from what was originally intended in the Bible. Hell has become a catchall word for however we imagine eternal punishment in the afterlife. But the Bible doesn't talk near as much about the afterlife as we have imagined. A surprising thing about the Old T.. | Brian Zahnd | ||

| 4c49f36 | The more you watch users carefully and listen to them articulate their intentions, motivations, and thought processes, the more you realize that their individual reactions to Web pages are based on so many variables that attempts to describe users in terms of one-dimensional likes and dislikes are futile and counter-productive. Good design, on the other hand, takes this complexity into account. | usability user-centered-design user-experience users | Steve Krug | |

| 92e83c3 | Vreme muci i zamara samo one koji zive zauzeti jedino nistavnim brigama o svojoj licnosti i svojim uzivanjima, ali ono je kratko i neosetno onima koji, zaboravljajuci sebe, rade na ma kakvom poslu koji ih prevazilazi; mereno velicinom jednog smelog i neostvarljivog sna, ono gotovo i ne postoji. | Ivo Andrić | ||

Trazeci razloge i objasnjenja tome stanju, fratar je sve svodio na tursku vladavinu i tvrdio da nikakvog boljitka ne moze da bude dok se ove zemlje ne oslobode turske sile i dok tursku vlast ne zameni hriscanska. Defose nije hteo da se zadovolji tim tumacenjem, nego je trazio razloge i u hriscanima samima. Turska vladavina stvorila j.. | Ivo Andrić | ||

| f967543 | And sometimes she would dream again of being Namakaokahai'i, her waves rolling across burled coral beds, scattering moonlight, cresting higher and higher the farther she traveled over the reef. She was a colossus of water and motion soaring toward the black crescent of 'Awahuua Bay, her soul perched on the curling lip of the wave, riding it in the only way she could now; she felt the mana, the power in her waves, felt the rumble in her ocea.. | Alan Brennert | ||

| af0522c | None of the patients could say the experiments didn't yield some benefits. It was the way the experiments were conducted that grated: with cold, clinical detachment. Masks, gloves, and carbolic acid were the order of the day fora ll staff, and while this may have been prudent it only made isolated people feel even more isolated. | Alan Brennert | ||

| 1d23c7e | Since when has a man not beaten his wife? If he doesn't beat her, it's either because he doesn't love her or because he isn't a real man. Since when is a man's paycheck or the fruit of the earth or what the chickens lay shared between them, when everybody knows he is the one in charge? Since when has a woman ever done the same things as a man? Besides, she was born with a wound between her legs and without balls, right, Senora Clara? | Isabel Allende | ||

| a0bfdbc | In all social classes except the most privileged, abnegation and hard work are considered the supreme female virtues; a spirit of sacrifice is a question of honor: the more one suffers for family, the prouder one feels. Women are used to thinking of their mate as a foolish child whose every serious fault, from drunkenness to domestic violence, they forgive . . . because he's a man. | Isabel Allende | ||

| 130d53f | I stroke them, and they always like that, because old people don't have anyone who touches them, and I get them hooked on a TV series, because nobody wants to die before the final episode. Some of them find comfort in prayer, but there are lots of atheists here, and they don't pray. What's most important is not to leave them on their own. | Isabel Allende | ||

You'll never get bored here. Our residents are well educated, and if they're in good health they keep on learning and experimenting. This community stimulates them and they can avoid the worst scourge of old age: loneliness." Irina" | Isabel Allende | ||
