Quote by Jerry Chin

And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.

And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down.

Summary

This quote encourages us to maintain a positive perspective during difficult times. It implies that instead of getting discouraged by setbacks or obstacles ("rain on your parade"), we should focus on looking up and seeing the bigger picture. The rain is used as a metaphor for challenges, and it highlights that without these challenges, we wouldn't be able to experience the beautiful outcome or growth symbolized by a "rainbow." In other words, adversity can lead to something positive and transformative if we choose to view it in a different light.

It is proof of a base and low mind for one to wish to think with the masses or majority, merely because the majority is the majority. Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people.

The English judged a person so that they'd be justified in casting her out. The Amish judged a person so that they'd be justified in welcoming her back. Where I'm from, if someone is accused of sinning, it's not so that others can place blame. It's so that the person can make amends and move on.
