More From Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.

Just me, just me sweet marie, she loves just me (she also loves maurice mcghee). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves louise dupree). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves the willow tree). no she don't, she loves just me! (poor, poor fool, why can't you see she can love others and still love thee.)
Sweet Tree Fool
Sin! sin! thou art a hateful and horrible thing, that abominable thing which god hates. and what wonder? thou hast insulted his holy majesty; thou hast bereaved him of beloved children; thou hast crucified the son of his infinite love; thou hast vexed his gracious spirit; thou hast defied his power; thou hast despised his grace; and in the body and blood of jesus, as if that were a common thing, thou hast trodden under foot his matchless mercy. surely, brethren, the wonder of wonders is, that sin is not that abominable thing which we also hate.
Jesus Art Children
O lord, thou knowest that which is best for us; let this or that be done, as thou shalt please. give what thou wilt, how much thou wilt, and when thou wilt. deal with me as thou thinkest best. place me where thou wilt, and deal with me in all things just as thou wilt. behold, i am thy servant, prepared for all things: i desire not to live unto myself, but unto thee; and oh, that i could do it worthily and perfectly!

When you live in a poor neighborhood, you are living in an area where you have poor schools. when you have poor schools, you have poor teachers. when you have poor teachers, you get a poor education. when you get a poor education, you can only work in a poor-paying job. and that poor-paying job enables you to live again in a poor neighborhood. so, it's a very vicious cycle.

Antiquity! thou wondrous charm, what art thou? that being nothing art everything? when thou wert, thou wert not antiquity - then thou wert nothing, but hadst a remoter antiquity, as thou calledst it, to look back to with blind veneration; thou thyself being to thyself flat, jejune, modern! what mystery lurks in this retroversion? or what half januses are we, that cannot look forward with the same idolatry with which we for ever revert! the mighty future is as nothing, being everything! the past is everything, being nothing!
Art Past Looks
If thy desire to raise thy fortunes encourage thy delights to the casts of fortune, be wise betimes, lest thou repent too late; what thou gettest, thou gainest by abused providence; what thou losest, thou losest by abused patience; what thou winnest is prodigally spent; what thou losest is prodigally lost; it is an evil trade that prodigally drives; and a bad voyage where the pilot is blind.

One of the reasons i always looked up to [george] carlin is he looked like your grandfather but, acted like your best friend. most of the adults in my world were adults and acted like adults and had job-type jobs and bills and pressures and stopped playing a long time ago. and george carlin was a guy that the more he aged the younger he seemed. it was odd because he was still sagely and wise. but he was such a role model for me.
