Forgiveness Revenge Believe

More From Seamus Heaney

I'll oil wells love you. i'll oil wells care. i'll oil wells need you. i want you oil wells dear.

Simply coming to the perpetrator and delivering the message is nozick's definition of revenge. and in that sense, adi is exacting revenge. when people ask, "does adi want revenge?" - they mean violent revenge. but in nozick's formulation, it is revenge. that is the essence of revenge.

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.

Believe that a further shore is reachable from here.

...as the slow sea sucked at the shore and then withdrew, leaving the strip of seaweed bare and the shingle churned, the sea birds raced and ran upon the beaches. then that same impulse to flight seized upon them too. crying, whistling, calling, they skimmed the placid sea and left the shore. make haste, make speed, hurry and begone; yet where, and to what purpose? the restless urge of autumn, unsatisfying, sad, had put a spell upon them and they must flock, and wheel, and cry; they must spill themselves of motion before winter came.

I do believe i begin to grasp the nature of miracles! for would it be a miracle, if there was any reason for it? miracles have nothing to do with reason. miracles contradict reason, they strike clean across mere human deserts, and deliver and save where they will. if they made sense, they would not be miracles.
