The only good husbands stay bachelors: They're too considera

Summary

This quote suggests that the only truly admirable husbands are those who never marry in the first place. It implies that married men are inherently less considerate, perhaps implying that they become less attentive to their partners' needs and desires. By staying single, these individuals supposedly prioritize their own well-being and maintain a level of thoughtfulness that is lost in the commitment of marriage. Overall, this statement emphasizes the idea that remaining unmarried is the key to maintaining a high level of consideration and care in interpersonal relationships.

The Friendship is not a reward for our discrimination and go

The Friendship is not a reward for our discrimination and good taste in finding one another out. IT is the instrument by which God reveals to each the beauties of all the others. They are no greater than the beauties of a thousand other men; by Friendship God opens our eyes to them. They are, like all beauties, derived from Him, and then, in a good Friendship, increased by Him through the Friendship itself, so that it is His instrument for creating as well as for revealing. At this feast it is he who has spread the board and it is He who has chosen the guests. It is He, we may dare to hope, who sometimes does, and always should, preside. Let us not reckon without our Host.

There is no society known where a more or less developed criminality is not found under different forms. No people exists whose morality is not daily infringed upon. We must therefore call crime necessary and declare that it cannot be non-existent, that the fundamental conditions of social organization, as they are understood, logically imply it.

One of my less pleasant chores when I was young was to read the Bible from one end to the other. Reading the Bible straight through is at least 70 percent discipline, like learning Latin. But the good parts are, of course, simply amazing. God is an extremely uneven writer, but when He's good, nobody can touch Him.
