 Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost?... And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost. - Bible  It is easier to suppose that the universe has existed from all eternity than to conceive a Being beyond its limits capable of creating it. Reading is the work of the alert mind, is demanding, and under ideal conditions produces finally a sort of ecstasy. This gives the experience of reading a sublimity and power unequalled by any other form of communication. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. - Bible My wife never lies about her age.

Every time I paint a portrait I lose a friend. We should say to God as we mingle with our dear ones each day, "God, give them each Thy blessing. They need it, because they live with me, and I am very selfish and unwilling to sacrifice very much for them, although I do love them." Facts are stubborn things, but statistics are more pliable. The natural man has only two primal passions: to get and to beget. The only peace, the only security, is in fulfillment. A belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses; it is an idea that possesses the mind.
