The more you expect from life, the more your expectations will be fulfilled. by laughing, you do not use up your laughter, but increase your store of it. the more you love, the more you will be loved. the more you give, the more you will receive. life proves that truth every hour, every day. and life continues to surprise.

More From Dean Koontz

A vast silence reigned over the land. the land itself was a desolation, lifeless, without movement, so lone and cold that the spirit of it was not even that of sadness. there was a hint in it of laughter, but of laughter more terrible than any sadness-a laughter that was mirthless as the smile of the sphinx, a laughter cold as the frost and partaking of the grimness of infallibility. it was the masterful and incommunicable wisdom of eternity laughing at the futility of life and the effort of life. it was the wild, the savage, frozen-hearted northland wild.

Assuming that a tax increase is necessary, it is clearly preferable to impose the additional cost on land by increasing the land tax, rather than to increase the wage tax - the two alternatives open to the city (of pittsburgh). it is the use and occupancy of property that creates the need for the municipal services that appear as the largest item in the budget - fire and police protection, waste removal, and public works. the average increase in tax bills of city residents will be about twice as great with wage tax increase than with a land tax increase.

I love you, i know this must come as something of a surprise, since all i’ve ever done is scorn you and degrade you and taunt you, but i have loved you for several hours now, and every second, more. i thought an hour ago that i loved you more than any woman has ever loved a man, but a half hour after that i knew that what i felt before was nothing compared to what i felt then. but ten minutes after that, i understood that my previous love was a puddle compared to the high seas before a storm.

What heart has not acknowledged the influence of this hour, the sweet and soothing hour of twilight, the hour of love, the hour of adoration, the hour of rest, when we think of those we love only to regret that we have not loved them more dearly, when we remember our enemies only to forgive them.
Sweet Regret Twilight
And then he drew a dial from his poke, and looking with lack-lustre eye, says very wisely, 'it is ten o'clock: thus we may see', quoth he, 'how the world wags: 'tis but an hour ago since it was nine, and after one hour more 'twill be eleven; and so from hour to hour we ripe and ripe, and then from hour to hour we rot and rot.

No, i can't admit it. brother,' said alyosha suddenly, with flashing eyes, 'you said just now, is there a being in the whole world who would have the right to forgive and could firgive? but there is a being and he can forgive everything, all and for all, because he gave his innocent blood for all and everything. you have forgotten him, and on him is built the edifice, and it is to him they cry aloud, "thou art just, o lord, for thy ways are revealed!
