Summary

This quote speaks to the paradoxical nature of human behavior. It highlights the observation that some individuals engage in actions that could be perceived as morally inappropriate or lacking refinement, yet possess an underlying beauty. It suggests that beauty can be found in unconventional or unexpected places, challenging preconceived notions of what is considered proper or aesthetically pleasing. Ultimately, it invites us to reflect on the multidimensional and complex nature of human existence, where contradictory elements can coexist and reveal a different kind of beauty.

In our most trivial walks, we are constantly, though unconsciously, steering like pilots by certain well-known beacons and headlands, and if we go beyond our usual course we still carry in our minds the bearing of some neighboring cape; and not till we are completely lost, or turned round -- for a man needs only to be turned round once with his eyes shut in this world to be lost -- do we appreciate the vastness and strangeness of nature. Every man has to learn the points of compass again as often as be awakes, whether from sleep or any abstraction. Not till we are lost, in other words not till we have lost the world, do we begin to find ourselves, and realize where we are and the infinite extent of our relations.

We will have bigger bureaucracies, bigger labor unions, and bigger state-run corporations. It will be harder to be an entrepreneur because of punitive taxes and regulations. The rewards of success will be expropriated for the sake of attaining greater income equality.

A few years ago you couldn't go from TV to film. It was like a 'no no' but I believe when you find a plan and purpose that God has for your life, there's not anything man can do to you. Especially when your faith is not really standing in the wisdom of man, you're really standing in the wisdom of God.
