"We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it"

-- Bob Dylan

“One of the most beautiful passages of Rousseau is that in the sixth book of Confessions, where he describes the awakening in him of the literary sense. Of such wisdom, the poetic passion, the desire of beauty, the love of art for its own sake, has most.”
“They said, â€œYou are a savage and dangerous woman.â€ I am speaking the truth. And the truth is savage and dangerous.”
“A nation for a continent, and a continent for a nation.”
“In real life I do violence, but for psychic stuff I do other things better.”
“It is grace at the beginning, and grace at the end. So that when you and I come to lie upon our death beds, the one thing that should comfort and help and strengthen us there is the thing that helped us in the beginning. Not what we have been, not what we have done, but the Grace of God in Jesus Christ our Lord. The Christian life starts with grace, it must continue with grace, it ends with grace. Grace wondrous grace. By the grace of God I am what I am. Yet not I, but the Grace of God which was with me.”
“I cannot see that any rational American. . . could conceivably try to fulfill the major national purposes of the United States through the United Nations. It would be comparable to the United States seeking to pass its legislation through the Supreme Soviet of the USSR.”
“Service is a limitless opportunity, it is the reason why we breathe.”
“If we're all going to hell in a handbasket, we might as well make it a party on the way down”
