Quote by Judy Garland

We cast away priceless time in dreams, born of imagination, fed upon illusion, and put to death by reality.

We cast away priceless time in dreams, born of imagination,

Summary

This quote implies that we often waste valuable time indulging in dreams and fantasies that are not rooted in reality. Our imaginations may give rise to these dreams, and we may become invested in them. However, eventually, the harsh truth of reality causes us to abandon and dismiss these illusions, leading us to realize the futility of investing our time and energy in them. It suggests that instead of getting lost in imagination, it is important to focus on facing and accepting reality to make the most out of our limited time.

The Lord often has his prophets climb mountains to converse

The Lord often has his prophets climb mountains to converse with Him. I always wondered why He did that, and now I know the answer: when we are on high, we can see everything else as small. Our glory and sadness lose their importance. Whatever we conquered or lost remains there below. From the heights of the mountain, you see how large the world is, and how wide its horizons.

We are resolved to protect individual freedom of belief. This freedom must include the child as well as the parent. The freedom for which we stand is not freedom of belief as we please,... not freedom to evade responsibility, ...but freedom to be honest in speech and action, freedom to respect one's own integrity of thought and feeling, freedom to question, to investigate, to try, to understand life and the universe in which life abounds, freedom to search anywhere and everywhere to find the meaning of Being, freedom to experiment with new ways of living that seem better than the old.
