“When Teddy Roosevelt was around, there was an Ottoman Empire. There was a Habsburg empire. They controlled millions of people across Africa, the Middle East and Europe. And they're gone.Prosperity killed them, because they didn't have a way to hold the people together. They didn't have the rituals and the holidays and the pride in their country. And that's what we need if we're going to hold ourselves together during periods of prosperity.”

“be glÎ±d of life, becÎ±use it gives you the chÎ±nce to love Î±nd to work Î±nd to plÎ±y Î±nd to look up Î±t the stÎ±rs; to be sÎ±tisfied with your posessions, to despise nothing in the world except fÎ±lsehood Î±nd meÎ±nness Î±nd to feÎ±r nothing except cowÎ±rdice; to be governed by your Î±dmirÎ±tions rÎ±ther thÎ±n by your disgusts, to covet nothing thÎ±t is your neighbour's except his kindness of heÎ±rt Î±nd gentleness of mÎ±nners; to think seldom of your enemies, often of your friends and to spend Î±s much time Î±s you cÎ±n with body Î±nd with spirit.”

“Our sages of blessed memory have said that we must not enjoy any pleasure in this world without reciting a blessing. If we eat any food, or drink any beverage, we must recite a blessing over them before and after. If we breathe the scent of goodly grass, the fragrance of spices, the aroma of good fruits, we pronounce a blessing over the pleasure. The same applies to pleasures of the sight. And the same applies to pleasures of the ear.”
