More From George Herbert

Take the case of the infinite ocean. there is no limit to its water. suppose a pot is immersed in it: there is water both inside and outside the pot. the jnani sees that both inside and outside there is nothing but paramatman. then what is this pot? it is 'i-consciousness'. because of the pot the water appears to be divided into two parts; because of the pot you seem to perceive an inside and an outside. one feels that way as long as this pot of 'i' exists. when the 'i' disappears, what is remains. that cannot be described in words.
Ocean Two Long
Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.

Breathes there the man, with soul so dead, who never to himself hath said, this is my own, my native land! whose heart hath ne'er within him burn'd, as home his footsteps he hath turn'd from wandering on a foreign strand! if such there breathe, go mark him well; for him no minstrel raptures swell; high though his titles, proud his name, boundless his wealth as wish can claim; despite those titles, power, and pelf, the wretch, concentred all in self, living, shall forfeit fair renown, and, doubly dying, shall go down to the vile dust, from whence he sprung, unwept, unhonor'd, and unsung.

He that hath a trade hath an estate; and he that hath a calling hath a place of profit and honor. a ploughman on his legs is higher than a gentleman on his knees.

Well, the american public always wanted to vote for a guy — and bush was the perfect guy — who they'd want to have over for pot-roast. and george bush is that guy. he does that well. you'd like to have him over for pot-roast. he reminds you of yourself. okay. well, now he's been over, he's had the pot-roast. but he's getting drunk and now he's talking about stem cells and terri schiavo and gay marriage. and now he's the guest that won't leave.
Gay Cells Perfect Guy
Industry need not wish, and he that lives upon hopes will die fasting. there are no gains without pains. he that hath a trade hath an estate, and he that hath a calling hath an office of profit and honor; but then the trade must be worked at and the calling followed, or neither the estate nor the office will enable us to pay our taxes. if we are industrious, we shall never starve; for at the workingman's house hunger looks in, but dares not enter. nor will the bailiff or the constable enter, for industry pays debts, while idleness and neglect increase them.
