Our country's political discourse and debate are enriched by discussions of the political implications of our faith traditions, whether they are taking place in our communities, at our dinner tables, or in our places of worship.

Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.

Wayne Dyer

My heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary.

Martin Luther

Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic.

Oscar Wilde

If only, I thought, I could talk to Eugene just one more time. This was before I came to understand that you cannot make someone fall in love with you But here's what you can do. By arguing and pleading and screaming and crying and throwing plates and phoning a lot and bringing hot food and sending flowers and buying gifts and doing unsolicited favors and remembering a birthday and being nice and declaring your abiding love and trying hard or sometimes merely by being present, you can make someone who was hitherto lukewarm really detest you.

Patricia Marx

It's not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.

Anthony Hitt

Every moment of light and dark is a miracle.

Walt Whitman

Christianity is the most ridiculous, the most absurd, and bloody religion that has ever infected the world

Voltaire

As we become curators of our own contentment on the Simple Abundance path... we learn to savor the small with a grateful heart.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Nothing is more revolting than the majority; for it consists of few vigorous predecessors, of knaves who accommodate themselves, of weak people who assimilate themselves, and the mass that toddles after them without knowing in the least what it wants

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
