More From Thomas More

Do not several sorts of rays make vibrations of several bignesses, which according to their bigness excite sensations of several colours, much after the manner that the vibrations of the air, according to their several bignesses excite sensations of several sounds? and particularly do not the most refrangible rays excite the shortest vibrations for making a sensation of deep violet, the least refrangible the largest form making a sensation of deep red, and several intermediate sorts of rays, vibrations of several intermediate bignesses to make sensations of several intemediate colours?
Air Rays Sound
There was just one moon. that familiar, yellow, solitary moon. the same moon that silently floated over fields of pampas grass, the moon that rose--a gleaming, round saucer--over the calm surface of lakes, that tranquilly beamed down on the rooftops of fast-asleep houses. the same moon that brought the high tide to shore, that softly shone on the fur of animals and enveloped and protected travelers at night. the moon that, as a crescent, shaved slivers from the soul--or, as a new moon, silently bathed the earth in its own loneliness. that moon.
Loneliness Animal Moon
It was like noticing the sun. you couldn't help but see it, to turn to face the heat of it, to bask in the glory of it. but often when the sun is high in the sky, the moon is up there, too. a dim memory of what she will be in the night, but there, nonetheless, dim and misty, hard and white. at night, there is only the moon, the sun is nowhere to be seen. there are no distractions when the moon rules the sky.
Memories Moon Night
But what exceeds all wonders, i have discovered four new planets and observed their proper and particular motions, different among themselves and from the motions of all the other stars; and these new planets move about another very large star [jupiter] like venus and mercury, and perchance the other known planets, move about the sun. as soon as this tract, which i shall send to all the philosophers and mathematicians as an announcement, is finished, i shall send a copy to the most serene grand duke, together with an excellent spyglass, so that he can verify all these truths.
Stars Moving Science
God is able to create particles of matter of several sizes and figures and perhaps of different densities and forces, and thereby to vary the laws of nature, and make worlds of several sorts in several parts of the universe.
Law Different Density
What was supposed to be so special about a full moon? it was only a big circle of light. and the dark of the moon was only darkness. but halfway between the two, when the moon was between the worlds of light and dark, when even the moon lived on the edge...maybe then a witch could believe in the moon.

You might believe that it's only for their own good, but how does it feel when you try to manipulate the people you love? are you teaching them that your love is conditional? maybe through inquiry we can find another way.
Inspirational Believe Teaching
We are always in a hurry to be happy...; for when we have suffered a long time, we have great difficulty in believing in good fortune.
Believe Long Fortune
Part of the oncoming demise (of new york during its terrible fiscal crisis) is that none of us can simply believe it. we were always the best and the strongest of cities, and our people were vital to the teeth. knock them down eight times and they would get up with that look in the eye which suggests the fight has barely begun.
New York Believe Eye
It is my feeling that as we grow older we should become not less radical but more so. i do not, of course, mean this in any political-party sense, but rather in a willingness to struggle for those things in which we passionately believe. social activism and the struggle for social justice are often thought of as the natural activities of the young but not of the middle-aged or the elderly. in fact, i don't think this was ever true.
