Quote by Richard Buckminster Fuller

Here is God's purpose -- for God, to me, it seems, is a verb not a noun, proper or improper.

Here is God's purpose -- for God, to me, it seems, is a verb

Summary

This quote suggests that the purpose of God is not defined by a static or fixed entity, but rather through continuous action or being in a state of "verbhood." It implies that God is not merely a passive entity to be worshipped, but an active force that transcends definitions and exists beyond traditional concepts of nouns. The quote invites a perspective that focuses on God's ever-evolving nature and emphasizes the idea that connection and engagement with the divine is a dynamic process rather than a stagnant belief.

We pretend that we know our children, because it's easier than admitting the truth--from the minute that cord is cut, they are strangers. It's far easier to tell yourself your daughter is still a little girl than to see her in a bikini and realize she has the curves of a young woman; it's safer to say you're a good parent who has all the right conversations about drugs and sex than to acknowledge there are a thousand things she would never tell you.

I just recently joined Twitter. It's very positive - I love all the accolades. If my ego is hurting, I can just open my Twitter account and see 'Oh, I love you! I love the show!' and it's great. I'm trying to find the balance between trying to be funny, being honest and just being a promoter as the guy on 'Royal Pains.'

Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set.
