But that doesn't mean we can't use new information to help us read the holy texts in new ways.

I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is physical difference between the two which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality, and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position.
I got drunk in Canada. I was there for 2 days but I was drunk there for 4 days. I don't know how it worked. I guess it was with the time difference or something.
A divided heart loses both worlds.
As I make my slow pilgrimage through the world, a certain sense of beautiful mystery seems to gather and grow.
