More From Charles Kingsley

He who possesses science and art, possesses religion as well; he who possesses neither of these, had better have religion.

The entire object of true education is to make people not merely do the right things, but enjoy the right things — not merely industrious, but to love industry — not merely learned, but to love knowledge — not merely pure, but to love purity — not merely just, but to hunger and thirst after justice.

Perhaps it’s that you can’t go back in time, but you can return to the scenes of a love, of a crime, of happiness, and of a fatal decision; the places are what remain, are what you can possess, are what is immortal. they become the tangible landscape of memory, the places that made you, and in some way you too become them. they are what you can possess and in the end what possesses you.

Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.

We don't always possess faith in the sense of having a clear embodiment of something to hang on to. the relationship between the intellect and faith is a very curious one. sometimes the intellect can point us to faith, sometimes the intellect can stand in the way of faith. sometimes, as st john of the cross points out, we have to darken or blind the intellect in order to have faith.

This forms the nub of a dilemna that every everest climber eventually comes up against: in order to succeed you must be exceedingly driven, but if you're too driven you're likely to die.

The people that can't win elections, outside of barack obama, the people on the democrat side who cannot win elections, who do not have the votes to stop donald trump at all in a constitutional sense, have to now behave outside the constitution in order to stop the duly elected president of the united states about whom they can produce no evidence that his election was fraudulent.
