“Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.”
- Henry Van Dyke
“Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.”
“You cannot do kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.”
"If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need."
The cross of Christ justifies God; He remains holy because He has punished sin in the death, the shed blood, of His Son.
“The thing that is important is the thing that is not seen.”
Insofar as men and women are different, they are not equal. Equality implies fungibility — that two things are perfectly interchangeable, so that one thing may be substituted for the other without any difference in value. Only a fool could believe that men and women are equal in that way, and yet this is what feminists would require us to believe. And any man who dares contradict this egalitarian dogma is a sexist, an oppressor, a reactionary representative of the patriarchy. All the other errors of feminism flow from this one fundamental error, a counterfactual insistence on the equality of the sexes. Men and women are not the same, and therefore are not equal.
"Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace."
“A taste for irony has kept more hearts from breaking than a sense of humor, for it takes irony to appreciate the joke which is on oneself."
"There's classified, and then there's classified. There's stuff that is really top secret, top secret, and there's stuff that is being presented to the president or the secretary of state that you might not want on the transom or going out over the wire but is basically stuff that you could get in open source."
“We do not segment our lives, giving some time to God, some to our business or schooling, while keeping parts to ourselves. The idea is to live all of our lives in the presence of God, under the authority of God, and for the honor and glory of God. That is what the Christian life is all about.”
If the Pope is right, then we should allow ALL refugees, whose birth has been foretold in the Old Testament to be born in the United States, to come in!
"Worry doesn't empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength"
Politics is downstream from culture
Culture is downstream from economics
Now the left is looking for a younger, more charismatic, and more glib replacement president to advance their stale unpopular agendas. But since when has changing an inept messenger ever changed a disastrous message?
"Say not my soul, From whence can God relieve my care?'
Remember that Omnipotence has servants everywhere.
His method is sublime, his heart profoundly kind,
God never is before his time, and never is behind."- J. J. Lynch
"Technology is neither good nor bad; nor is it neutral."
"The man who can look upon a crisis without being willing to offer himself upon the altar of his country is not fit for public trust."
Back in the late Seventies, all my friends in Hollywood thought I was showing off when I used a one-hundred-dollar bill for a straw. It turns out I was a cutting-edge environmentalist.
“Change may not always bring growth, but there is no growth without change.”
"It's not the will to win that matters -everyone has that. It's the will to prepare to win that matters."
Kissing a fella with a beard is like a picnic. You don't mind going through a little brush to get there.
It is always beneficial to praise the Lord; it cheers the day and brightens the night; it lightens toil and softens sorrow; and over earthly gladness it sheds a sanctifying radiance which makes it less liable to blind us with its glare.

''Imagination is more important than knowledge. For while knowledge defines all we currently know and understand, imagination points to all we might yet discover and create.''
“Who then is invincible? The one who cannot be upset by anything outside their reasoned choice.”
“Battles really are the wildfires of history, out of which the survivors float like embers and then land to burn far beyond the original conflagration. To teach us those important lessons we must go back through the past to see precisely how such calamities affected now lost worlds—and yet still influence us today.”
It’s been less than a month since the Supreme Court rejected the Environmental Protection Agency’s claim that bureaucrats could govern without Congress to regulate carbon (which is to say, the entire economy). What makes anyone believe that the president—who, incidentally, just got back from begging Saudi theocrats to pump more oil—is imbued with the power to enact a new regulatory regime or funding by fiat?
