More From Eleanor Roosevelt

I knelt and opened up my lute case. moving the lute aside, i pressed the lid of the secret compartment and twisted it open. i slid threpe's sealed letter inside, where it joined the hollow horn with nina's drawing and a small sack of dried apple i had stowed there. there was nothing special about the dried apple, but in my opinion if you have a secret compartment in your lute case and don't use it to hide things, there is something terribly, terribly wrong with you.
Moving Apples Drawing
Strip back the beliefs pasted on by governesses, schools, and states, you find indelible truths at one's core. rome'll decline and fall again, cortés'll lay tenochtitlán to waste again, and later, ewing will sail again, adrian'll be blown to pieces again, you and i'll sleep under the corsican stars again, i'll come to bruges again, fall in and out of love with eva again, you'll read this letter again, the sun'll grow cold again. nietzsche's gramophone record. when it ends, the old one plays it again, for an eternity of eternities.

The rum tum tugger is a curious cat: if you offer him pheasant he would rather have grouse. if you put him in a house he would much prefer a flat, if you put him in a flat then he'd rather have a house. if you set him on a mouse then he only wants a rat, if you set him on a rat then he'd rather chase a mouse. yes the rum tum tugger is a curious cat - and there isn't any call for me to shout it: for he will do as he do do and there's no doing anything about it!
Cat House Want
Danger lurks when we divide ourselves with expressions such as "my private life," "my professional life," or even "my best behavior." living life in separate compartments can lead to internal conflict and exhausting tension....inner peace comes only as we maintain the integrity of truth in all aspects of our lives. when we covenant to follow the lord and obey his commandments, we accept his standards in every thought, action, and deed.
Integrity Live Life Expression

It would be very curious to record by means of photographs, not the stage of the picture, but its metamorphoses. perhaps one would perceive the path taken by the mind in order to put its dreams into a concrete form. but what is really very curious is to observe that fundamentally the picture does not change, that despite appearances the initial vision remains almost intact.

Broken, hopeless, headed nowhere only motivation for what the dealer's supplying that rush, that drug, that dope those pills, that crumb, that roach thinkin' i would never do that, not that drug and growing up nobody ever does until your stuck, lookin' in the mirror like i can't believe what i've become swore i was goin' to be someone and growing up everyone always does we sell our dreams and our potential to escape through that buzz

A man's bookcase will tell you everything you'll ever need to know about him," my father had told me more than once. "a businessman has business books and a dream has novels and books of poetry. most women like reading about love, and a true revolutionary will have books about the minutiae of overthrowing the oppressor. a person with no books is inconsequential in a modern setting, but a peasant that reads is a prince in waiting.
