You can take lessons to become almost anything: flying lessons, piano lessons, skydiving lessons, acting lessons, race car driving lessons, singing lessons. but there's no class for comedy. you have to be born with it. god has to give you this gift.

That happened when i was a freshman in high school. the guy reading it [the bible] was dating my older sister. i thought he was the cutest thing that had ever happened in nashville. he was nine years older than me and i thought, 'mimi, i hate to do this to you, but i'm going to steal this guy away.' so i went to this bible study thinking i was going to make this guy fall in love with me. i was fourteen. hey, you know. but i was so overwhelmed by what they were talking about at this bible study. i became a very serious, committed christian.

As soon as you look at the world through an ideology you are finished. no reality fits an ideology. life is beyond that. that is why people are always searching for a meaning to life. but life has no meaning; it cannot have meaning because meaning is a formula; meaning is something that makes sense to the mind. every time you make sense out of reality, you bump into something that destroys the sense you made . meaning is only found when you go beyond meaning.

The pain comes from more than the facts of circumstance, or the deeds of others. it comes from within. from understanding what we lost. it comes from knowing how foolish we were - vain, arrogant children - when we thought ourselves happy. it comes from knowing how fragile and doomed the old ways were, just when we thought them and ourselves, secure!. the pain comes from knowing we have never been safe, and therefore will never be safe again. it comes from knowing we can never be children again.
Children Pain Knowing
As i accepted the change of the golden hair of my childhood to the reddish-brown hair of my youth without regret, so i also accept my silver hair-and i am ready to accept the time when my hair and the rest of my clay garment returns to the dust from which it came, while my spirit goes on to freer living. it is the season for my hair to be silver, and each season has its lessons to teach. each season of life is wonderful if you have learned the lessons of the season before. it is only when you go on with lessons unlearned that you wish for a return.
Regret Dust Hair
I enter a most earnest plea that in our hurried and rather bustling life of today we do not lose the hold that our forefathers had on the bible. i wish to see the bible study as much a matter of course in the secular colleges as in the seminary. no educated man can afford to be ignorant of the bible, and no uneducated man can afford to be ignorant of the bible.

My bible tells me that if we train a child in the way he should go, when he is old he will not turn from it. i think faith and guidance can help fortify a young woman's sense of self, a young man's sense of responsibility, and a sense of reverence all young people for the act of sexual intimacy.

The bible begins gloriously with paradise, the symbol of youth, and ends with the everlasting kingdom, with the holy city. the history of every man should be a bible.

We have staked the whole future of our new nation, not upon the power of government; far from it. we have staked the future of all our political constitutions upon the capacity of each of ourselves to govern ourselves according to the moral principles of the ten commandments.
