Sweat, sweat, sweat! work and sweat, cry and sweat, pray and sweat!
Sweat Praying Cry
We must know the difference between sweat and tears. sweat is wet. tears are wet. sweat is salty. tears are salty. but progress comes through sweat. progress never came through tears.
Sweat Differences Progress
Things break all the time. glass and dishes and fingernails. cars and contracts and potato chips. you can break a record, a horse, a dollar. you can break the ice. there are coffee breaks and lunch breaks and prison breaks. day breaks, waves break, voices break. chains can be broken. so can silence, and fever... promises break. hearts break.
Horse Coffee Heart
Both read the same bible, and pray to the same god; and each invokes his aid against the other. it may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just god's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces; but let us judge not that we be not judged. the prayers of both could not be answered; that of neither has been answered fully.
Prayer War Men
I love, cherish, and respect women in my mind, in my heart, and in my soul. this love of women is the soil in which my life is rooted. it is the soil of our common life together. my life grows out of this soil. in any other soil, i would die. in whatever ways i am strong, i am strong because of the power and passion of this nurturant love.
Strong Passion Heart
To read in the bible, as the word of god himself, that "in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, ["] and to preach there-from that, "in the sweat of other mans faces shalt thou eat bread," to my mind can scarcely be reconciled with honest sincerity.

Almost all of the liberal and christian members of the constitutional commission have withdrawn, because we all fear that the muslim brotherhood will pass a document with islamist undertones that marginalizes the rights of women and religious minorities. who sits in this group? one person, who wants to ban music, because it's allegedly against sharia law; another, who denies the holocaust; another, who openly condemns democracy.
Christian Religious Holocaust
For of all slaveholders with whom i have ever met, religious slaveholders are the worst. i have ever found them the meanest and basest, the most cruel and cowardly, of all others.
Religious Found Mets
There is not a flower that opens, not a seed that falls into the ground, and not an ear of wheat that nods on the end of its stalk in the wind that does not preach and proclaim the greatness and the mercy of god to the whole world.
Faith Religious Flower
If you're an american and you are, you know, subscribing to the ideals and the creed and the values that we believe in as a country, you know, then we don't have a religious test in this country.
