More From George S. Patton

Every time i look down on this timeless town whether blue or gray be her skies. whether loud be her cheers or soft be her tears, more and more do i realize: i love paris in the springtime. i love paris in the fall. i love paris in the winter when it drizzles, i love paris in the summer when it sizzles. i love paris every moment, every moment of the year. i love paris, why, oh why do i love paris? because my love is near.
Summer Cheer Fall
The larger the german body, the smaller the german bathing suit and the louder the german voice issuing german demands and german orders to everybody who doesn't speak german. for this, and several other reasons, germany is known as 'the land where israelis learned their manners'.
Order Land Voice
Sometimes i come across a tree which seems like buddha or jesus: loving, compassionate, still, unambitious, enlightened, in eternal meditation, giving pleasure to a pilgrim, shade to a cow, berries to a bird, beauty to its surroundings, health to its neighbors, branches for the fire, leaves for the soil, asking nothing in return, in total harmony with the wind and the rain. how much can i learn from a tree? the tree is my church, the tree is my temple, the tree is my mantra, the tree is my poem and my prayer.
Love Beauty Beautiful
My grandmother was german. she didn't teach any of her children german. she really wanted them to be american. and now, she's since passed away, i get so frustrated sometimes. i'm like, "oh, oma, why didn't you teach your kids german?" my dad would have spoken german to me from birth, and i would have spoken german.

Leaves are usually looked upon as the children of the tree. yes, they are children of the tree, born from the tree, but they are also mothers of the tree. the leaves combine raw sap, water, and minerals, with sunshine and gas, and convert it into a variegated sap that can nourish the tree. in this way, the leaves become the mother of the tree. we are all children of society, but we are also mothers. we have to nourish society. if we are uprooted from society, we can not trasform it into a more liveable place for us and our children.

Christians, of all people, should not be destroyers. we should treat nature with an overwhelming respect. we may cut down a tree to build a house, or to make a fire to keep the family warm. but we should not cut down the tree just to cut down the tree. we may, if necessary, bark the cork tree in order to have the use of the bark. but what we should not do is to bark the tree simply for the sake of doing so, and let it dry and stand there a dead skeleton in the wind. to do so is not to treat the tree with integrity.
Christian Integrity Cutting

Instead of man to love, we have a man-god to worship . from being the example of devotion, he is its object; the religion of christ ended with his life , and left us instead but the christian religion.
Christian Men Example
When i first became a christian i thought i would be glad when i got farther on, and got established. i thought i would be so strong and there would not be any danger; but the longer i live, the more danger i see there is. the only hope of any christian...is to keep hold of christ.
Christian Strong Would Be
"that of the person who sees other human beings as sinners," said the master.
Christianity Masters Said
A christian is one who is invited... to join in the feast, to the joy of being saved, to the joy of being redeemed, to the joy of sharing life with christ. this is a joy! you are called to a party!
