There Is No Life In Thee, Now,

Herman Melville
There is no life in thee, now, except that rocking life imparted by a gently rolling ship; by her, borrowed from the sea; by the sea, from the inscrutable tides of god.

Lord! thou art with thy people still; they see thee in the night-watches, and their hearts burn within them as thou talkest with them by the way. and thou art near to those that have not known thee; open their eyes that they may see thee--see thee weeping over them, and saying, "ye will not come unto me that ye might have life"--see thee hanging on the cross and saying, "father, forgive them, for they know not what they do"--see thee as thou wilt come again in thy glory to judge them at the last. amen.

Gaze not on beauty too much, lest it blast thee; nor too long, lest it blind thee; nor too near, lest it burn thee. if thou like it, it deceives thee; if thou love it, it disturbs thee; if thou hunt after it, it destroys thee. if virtue accompany it, it is the heart's paradise; if vice associate it, it is the soul's purgatory. it is the wise man's bonfire, and the fool's furnace.
Beauty Wise Heart
I see thee better in the dark, i do not need a light. the love of thee a prism be excelling violet. i see thee better for the years that hunch themselves between, the miner’s lamp sufficient be to nullify the mine. and in the grave i see thee best— its little panels be a-glow, all ruddy with the light i held so high for thee! what need of day to those whose dark hath so surpassing sun, it seem it be continually at the meridian?

Look, i'm very much in favor of tax cuts, but not with borrowed money. and the problem that we've gotten into in recent years is spending programs with borrowed money, tax cuts with borrowed money, and at the end of the day that proves disastrous. and my view is i don't think we can play subtle policy here.

Sadly enough, there is a kind of an anti-intellectualism among many christians: spirituality is falsely pitted against intellectual comprehension as though they stood in a dichotomy. such anti-intellectualism cuts away at the very heart of the christian message. of course, there is a false intellectualism which does destroy the work of the holy spirit. but it does not arise when men wrestle honestly with honest questions and then see that the bible has the answers. this does not oppose true spirituality.
