Quote by John Fitzgerald Kennedy

There is no city in the United States in which I can get a warmer welcome and fewer votes than Columbia, Ohio.

Summary

This quote humorously highlights the contradiction between the warm hospitality an individual receives in Columbia, Ohio, and the lack of electoral support they receive. It implies that the people of Columbia may warmly welcome and engage with outsiders, showing kindness and hospitality, yet they do not necessarily transfer these sentiments into their voting behavior. This quote could be interpreted as a lighthearted reflection on the abstract notion of popularity and the unpredictability of political success.

But supposing God became a man - suppose our human nature which can suffer and die was amalgamated with God's nature in one person - then that person could help us. He could surrender His will, and suffer and die, because He was man; and He could do it perfectly because He was God. You and I can go through this process only if God does it in us; but God can only do it if He becomes man. Our attempts at this dying will succeed only if we men share in God's dying, just as our thinking can succeed only because it is a drop out of the ocean of His intelligence: but we cannot share God's dying unless God dies; and He cannot die except by being a man. That is the sense in which He pays our debt, and suffers for us what He Himself need not suffer at all.
