The angel of the Family is Woman. Mother, wife, or sister, Woman is the caress of life, the soothing sweetness of affection shed over its toils, a reflection for the individual of the loving providence which watches over Humanity. In her there is treasure enough of consoling tenderness to allay every pain. Moreover for every one of us she is the initiator of the future. The mother's first kiss teaches the child love; the first holy kiss of the woman he loves teaches man hope and faith in life; and love and faith create a desire for perfection and the power of reaching towards it step by step; create the future, in short, of which the living symbol is the child, link between us and the generations to come. Through her the Family, with its divine mystery of reproduction, points to Eternity.

A man who doubts himself shouldn't have to try too hard for too long, not until he's seasoned.

Stephen King

It is dangerous for a woman to defy the gods; To taunt them with the tongue's thin tip,Or strut in the weakness of mere humanity,Or draw a line daring them to cross.

Anne Spencer, Letter to My Siste

The disparity between a restaurant's price and food quality rises in direct proportion to the size of the pepper mill.

Bryan Miller

Rhetoric is a poor substitute for action, and we have trusted only to rhetoric. If we are really to be a great nation, we must not merely talk we must act big.

Theodore Roosevelt

Love binds, and it binds forever. Good binds while evil unravels. Separation is another word for evil; it is also another word for deceit.
