I know that big people don't like questions from children. they can ask all the questions they like, how's school? are you a good boy? did you say your prayers? but if you ask them did they say their prayers you might be hit on the head.

You see, dash -- i was never the girl in your head. and you were never the boy in my head. i think we both knew that. it's only when we try to make the girl or boy in our head real that the true trouble comes. i did that with carlos, and it was a bad failure. be careful what you're doing, because no one is ever who you want them to be. and the less you really know them, the more likely you are to confuse them with the girl or boy in your head.

Do not get into a fight if you can possibly avoid it. if you get in, see it through. don't hit if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting, but never hit soft. don't hit at all if you can help it; don't hit a man if you can possibly avoid it; but if you do hit him, put him to sleep.

If you want your children to relate to the culture you live in, if you want to train them outside of the general system, you have to tell your children that ordinary children tend to say things like 'i can run faster than you; i can draw better than you; i know things you don't know'. you have to tell them what normal children are like. normal children are messed up and you have to tell them about that. but if you instruct your child in high correlation with the physical world, they won't be able to relate with normal children. normal means mixed up as i use the word.
Running Children Mean
The little boy and the old man said the little boy, "sometimes i drop my spoon." said the old man, "i do that too." the little boy whispered, "i wet my pants." i do that too," laughed the little old man. said the little boy, "i often cry." the old man nodded, "so do i." but worst of all," said the boy, "it seems grown-ups don't pay attention to me." and he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand. i know what you mean," said the little old man.

Jesus is the mediator of justice; mary obtains for us grace; for, as st. bernard, st. bonaventure, st. bernardine of siena, st. germanus, st. antoninus, and others say, it is the will of god to dispense through the hands of mary whatever graces he is pleased to bestow upon us. with god, the prayers of the saints are the prayers of his friends, but the prayers of mary are the prayers of his mother.
