Para quienes siguen a Jesus de Nazaret, el mandato para cada uno ya ha sido establecido y comunicado por el Padre a todos sus hijos: < |

| f9dfbc6 | Antes de tratar de influenciar y reclutar a otros para que trabajen con usted en la creacion de una vision convincente necesita estar claro acerca de su proposito personal. El proposito personal del lider debe guiar y alinear los esfuerzos de quienes le seguiran; en caso contrario, toda su relacion se habra levantado sobre un fundamento falso. Motivos escondidos y agendas ocultas sabotearan la confianza y la confianza es el ingrediente clav.. | Kenneth H. Blanchard | ||

| 0229c4d | El fruto del gran liderazgo de servicio se hace realidad cuando un lider busca traspasar a la generacion siguiente de lideres los desafios de su epoca con toda la sabiduria, conocimiento y recursos espirituales que pueda proveer. | Kenneth H. Blanchard | ||
| e6d86e2 | Seguir a Jesus y guiar como El significa que esta sirviendo a un proposito superior y que debe ser responsable a un nivel de esa altura en una manera que no todos entenderan ni aplaudiran. Al mismo tiempo, usted hara como El hizo y se enfocara en servir a los demas ayudandoles a crecer y a desarrollarse. | Kenneth H. Blanchard | ||
| f1c1c72 | I have no regrets at all. None. I consider myself to be the luckiest old broad on two feet." | Betty White | ||
| 0e8b9e4 | Time is a pendulum. Not a river. More akin to what goes around comes around. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| bed8c3b | She was wearing her white uniform and was on her way to take on other traumatized children. It must be tough living with so many war stories. I was just living with one, mine, and it was difficult, as the nightmares about what had happened continued to torment me. Why does she do it? Why do they all do it? I thought as we went our separate ways. It was the last time I saw her. I loved her but never told her. | Ishmael Beah | ||
| eb66207 | I think that when people like you , Mr. Von Vampton, say "The Negro Experience" you are saying that all Negroes experience the world the same way. In that way you can isolate the misfits who would propel them into penetrating the ceiling of this bind you and your assistants have established in this country. The ceiling above which no slave would be allowed to penetrate without stirring the kept bloodhounds." -- | Ishmael Reed | ||
| 278804a | The Jes Grew crisis was becoming acute. Compounding it, Black Yellow and Red Mu'tafikah were looting the museums shipping the plunder back to where it came from. America, Europe's last hope, the protector of the archives of "mankind's" achievements had come down with a bad case of Jes Grew and Mu'tafikah too. Europe can no longer guard the "fetishes" of civilizations which were placed in the various Centers of Art Detention, located in New .. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| 1295c26 | To some if you owned your own mind you were indeed sick but when you possessed an Atonist mind you were healthy. A mind which sought to interpret the world by using a single loa. Somewhat like filling a milk bottle with an ocean. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| ecf4cf4 | 61 lynchings occurred in 1920 alone. In 1921, 62, some of the victims, soldiers returning from the Great War who after fighting and winning significant victories - just as they had fought in the Revolutionary and Civil wars and the wars again the Indians - thought that America would repay them for the generosity of putting their lives on the line, for aiding in salvaging their hides from the Kaiser who had been tagged "enemy" this time. Ins.. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| 953e272 | He is summoned and asked to swear upon the only book the judge will allow in "his court." PaPa LaBas won't dare touch the accursed thing. He demands the right to his own idols and books. It reminds PaPa LaBas of the familiar epigram: "Orthodoxy is my Doxy, Heterodoxy is the other fellow's Doxy." | Ishmael Reed | ||
| fd68e30 | Whenever sophistry and rhetoric fail they send in their poor White goons. They don't have the guts of real gangsters. The letters after their names are their tommy guns and those universities where they pour over syllables in the many cubicles, their Big House. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| a26daf9 | But what have Cortes and Pizarro or the others to do with me? You carry them in your blood as I carry the blood of Montezume; expeditions of them are harbored by your heart and your mind carries their supply trains. You've changed your helmet for a frontier hat while I have changed my robes for overalls and a black leather jacket. The costumes may have changed but the blood is still the same, gringo. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| 4738f08 | Have you ever seen people line up outside a Van Gogh exhibit? When they get inside there are so many they can't even see the paintings, they just pass by like sheep or like mourners passing the tomb of a fallen hero, a bier, with the same solemnity. And the extent of their knowledge concerning Van Gogh is that he "cut off his ear." Man, it's religion they make it into." | Ishmael Reed | ||
| 0052fa9 | Faust was an actual person. Somewhere between 1510 and 1540 this "wandering conjurer and medical quack" made his travels about the southwest German Empire, telling people his knowledge of "secret things." I always puzzled over why such a legend was so basic to the Western mind; but I've thought about it and now I think I know the answer. Can't you imagine this man traveling about with his bad herbs, love philters, physicks and potions, char.. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| baa61b0 | I'm just 1 man. Not Faust nor the Kaiser nor the Ku Klux Klan. I am an individual, not a whole tribe or nation. That's what I'm counting on. But if there is such a thing as a racial soul, a piece of Faust the mountebank residing in a corner of the White man' mind, then we are doomed. It always seems that we talk to the many and then the few and the we are down to 1 man and just as the war between the races is about to begin that 1 man becom.. | Ishmael Reed | ||
| a5cd5e9 | La ultima vez que John Weston vio a su hijo con vida fue una helada tarde de la primera semana de marzo en la que, mientras ambos charlaban a la entrada del garaje, su nieta hacia un muneco de nieve. Antes de marcharse, le dio una paternal palmadita en el hombro y prometio que volverian a verse pronto. Y asi fue. Menos de cuarenta y ocho horas mas tarde, lo vio muerto, tendido en una camilla con una bala de pequeno calibre en la cabeza. Joh.. | Michael Koryta | ||
| a8f965a | Las personas entran y salen de nuestra de vida. Nunca llegamos a enterarnos de cuando y como llegan, ni tampoco de cuando y como se van. Simplemente, aprendemos de ello, lo sobrellevamos como podemos y seguimos adelante. Asi es como funciona. Y eso es lo que tienes que hacer tu ahora. | Michael Koryta | ||

It's the story that they're already telling themselves, don't you see? It's the nightmare they believe in. Once you understand that nightmare, you join them in it. Their fear becomes your fear. It's all a shared experience then. And once you have that, once they feel that is the truth, all the way down to the.. | psychopaths recruiting terrorism | Michael Koryta | |

| 3a0bcc9 | The door to the little dining parlor banged open, the apologetic footman rushing in behind a young woman St. Just had not seen before. She was trussed up in a shapeless black bombazine dress covering her from ankles to wrist to neck, an equally hideous black bonnet on her head. "That is not my tart," the earl observed to no one in particular. "Bronwyn!" The woman leapt across the room and wrapped her arms around Winnie, the bonnet tumbling .. | Grace Burrowes | ||

Once I managed to set it in motion, it was loath to stop without banging me up in some fashion, especially during the thrilling plunge down the backyard hill, when I switched roles from cart pusher to dragging victim. | Bob Tarte | ||
