Jesus was the most humble person on earth, and everything He did was humble. This means that when "Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple," and "overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons" (Matt. 21:12 ESV), it was a humble act! It was a strong act, but He had the people's best interests and the glory of the Father in mind. It is possible to be loud and humble. And there will be times when it is wrong for us to sit quietly. — Francis Chan

Why should anything exist at all, you might ask?
Existence didn't just spring out of nothing whatsoever. Even if there was a time of No-Thingness, then there must have been an inherent or precursory realm of possibility; a possibility that something
anything
such as the imaginal, might exist.

In the use of force, one simplifies the situation by assuming that the evil to be overcome is clear-cut, definite, and irreversible. Hence there remains but one thing: to eliminate it. Any dialogue with the sinner, any question of the irreversibility of his act, only means faltering and failure. Failure to eliminate evil is itself a defeat. Anything that even remotely risks such defeat is in itself capitulation to evil. The irreversibility of evil then reaches out to contaminate even the tolerant thought of the hesitant crusader who, momentarily, doubts the total evil of the enemy he is about to eliminate. p. 21 — Thomas Merton

Confining marine animals to tanks and separating them from their families and their natural surroundings, just so people can watch them swim in endless circles, teaches us far more about humans than it does about animals - and the lesson is not a flattering one. — Pamela Anderson

'Sister Act' was my first audition out of school. I was 21 and cast as the understudy. It was non-Equity, so I lived in L.A. on $300 a week.

We need investment in science and technology, and all the other ways of treating very seriously these major problems. 2030 is not very far away — John Beddington
