Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."

i wandered lonely as a cloud

i wandered lonely as a cloud
that floats on high o'er vales and hills
when all at once i saw a crowd
a host of golden daffodils
beside the lake beneath the trees
fluttering and dancing in the breeze

continuous as the stars that shine
and twinkle in the milky way
they stretched in never ending line
along the margin of a bay
ten thousand saw i at a glance
tossing their heads in sprightly dance

the waves beside them danced; but they
outdid the sparkling waves in glee
a poet could not but be gay
in such a jocund company
gazed - and gazed - but little thought
what wealth the show to me had brought

for oft, when on my couch i lie
in vacant or in pensive mood
they flash upon the inward eye
which is the bliss of solitude
and then my heart with pleasure fills
and dances with daffodils

sonnet 18

shall i compare thee to a summer's day?
thou art more lovely and more temperate?
rough winds do shake the darling buds of may,
and summer's lease hath all too short a date,
sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
and often is his gold complexion dimmed;
and every fair from fair declines,
by chance or nature's changing course untrimmed;
but thy eternal summer shall not fade;
nor loose possession of that fair ow'st,
nor shall death brag thou wond'rest in his shade,
when in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
so long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
so long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Instead of fulfilling the promise of infinite orgasmic bliss, sex in the America of the feminine mystique is becoming a strangely joyless national compulsion, if not a contemptuous mockery.
Billy Crystal (1947 - )

Mortal lovers must not try to remain at the first step; for lasting passion is the dream of a harlot and from it we wake in despair.
C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963) ,'The Pilgrim's Regress'

A man can sleep around, no questions asked, but if a woman makes nineteen or twenty mistakes she's a tramp.
Joan Rivers (1935 - )

In America sex is an obsession, in other parts of the world it is a fact.
Marlene Dietrich (1901 - 1992)

One thing I've learned in all these years is not to make love when you really don't feel it; there's probably nothing worse you can do to yourself than that.
Norman Mailer (1923 - )

But seduction isn’t making someone do what they don’t want to do. Seduction is enticing someone into doing what they secretly want to do already.
Waiter Rant

If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.


In Paris they simply stared when I spoke to them in French; I never did succeed in making those idiots understand their language.


In religion and politics, people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second hand, and without examination.


It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.


It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.


Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.


Most people are bothered by those passages of Scripture they do not understand, but the passages that bother me are those I do understand.


Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.


The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up.

"What is the meaning of human life, or of organic life altogether? To answer this question at all implies a religion. Is there any sense then, you ask, in putting it? I answer, the man who regards his own life and that of his fellow creatures as meaningless is not merely unfortunate but almost disqualified for life."

"I do not think of all the misery, but of the glory that remains.
Go outside into the fields, nature and the sun,
go out and seek happiness in yourself and in God.
Think of the beauty that again and again
discharges itself within and without you and be happy."
