More From George MacDonald

Thus die i, thus, thus, thus. now am i dead, now am i fled; my soul is in the sky: tongue, lose thy light; moon take thy flight. now die, die, die, die, die.

To show you how radical i am, i want carjackers dead. i want rapists dead. i want burglars dead. i want child molesters dead. i want the bad guys dead. no court case. no parole. no early release. i want 'em dead. get a gun and when they attack you, shoot 'em.

In the twentieth century war will be dead, the scaffold will be dead, hatred will be dead, frontier boundaries will be dead, dogmas will be dead; man will live. he will possess something higher than all these-a great country, the whole earth, and a great hope, the whole heaven.
Country War Men
God is dead. let us not understand by this that he does not exist or even that he no longer exists. he is dead. he spoke to us and is silent. we no longer have anything but his cadaver. perhaps he slipped out of the world, somewhere else like the soul of a dead man. perhaps he was only a dream...god is dead.
Dream Men Somewhere Else
God is dead. god remains dead. and we have killed him. how shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? what was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives: who will wipe this blood off us? what water is there for us to clean ourselves? what festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we have to invent? is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it?
Spiritual Greatness Blood
The remarkable thing is that we really love our neighbor as ourselves: we do unto others as we do unto ourselves. we hate others when we hate ourselves. we are tolerant toward others when we tolerate ourselves. we forgive others when we forgive ourselves. we are prone to sacrifice others when we are ready to sacrifice ourselves.

The ripe fignow that you live here in my chest,anywhere we sit is a mountaintop.and those other images,which have enchanted peoplelike porcelain dolls from china,which have made men and women weepfor centuries, even those have changed now.what used to be pain is a lovely benchwhere we can rest under the roses.a left hand has become a right.a dark wall, a window.a cushion in a shoe heel,the leader of the community!now silence. what we sayis poison to someand nourishing to others.what we say is a ripe fig,but not every bird that flieseats figs.
Love Pain Wall
To love is to place happiness in the heart of another.
Love Love You Heart
Okay, if this is what falling in love feels like, someone please kill me now. (not literally, overzealous readers.) but it was all too much - too much emotion, too much happiness, too much longing, perhaps too much ice cream.
Falling In Love Ice Cream Too Much
