An abundance of friendships may pave the path to failure. A man cannot align himself too closely with the world, as exemplified by Christ who, despite calling twelve, experienced betrayal from one among them. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 2 months ago
He who believes himself wiser than God has barely embarked on the journey to understand the virtue of Wisdom. The fool, in his arrogance, deems himself too clever, and yet God maintains a silent laughter at the folly of such conceit. True wisdom lies in humble acknowledgment, for in humility, one opens the door to the profound lessons that God's silent laughter imparts. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 2 months ago

Will the magistrate provide by an express Law, That such an one shall not become poor or sick? Laws provide, as much as is possible, that the Goods and Health of Subjects be not injured by the Fraud and Violence of others; they do not guard them from the Negligence or Ill-husbandry of the Possessors themselves. – John Locke	added by Normando 3 months ago
The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of Conservatives is to prevent mistakes from being corrected. Even when the revolutionist might himself repent of his revolution, the traditionalist is already defending it as part of his tradition. Thus we have two great types -- the advanced person who rushes us into ruin, and the retrospective person who admires the ruins. He admires them especially by moonlight, not to say moonshine. Each new blunder of the progressive or prig becomes instantly a legend of immemorial antiquity for the snob. This is called the balance, or mutual check, in our Constitution. – Gilbert Keith Chesterton	added by Normando 4 months ago
I will say it in Russian : The man from the Kremlin is obviously very afraid and probably hiding somewhere, not showing himself. – Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine	Found on New York Times 9 months ago

When I certify someone insane, I am not equivocating when I write that he is of unsound mind, may be dangerous to himself and others, and requires care and attention in a mental hospital. However, at the same time, I am also aware that, in my opinion, there are other people who are regarded as sane, whose minds are as radically unsound, who may be equally or more dangerous to themselves and others and whom society does not regard as psychotic and fit persons to be in a madhouse. – R. D. Laing	added by JokerGem 1 year ago

Like thieves in the night, the coalition just passed a disgraceful and corrupt personalized law in response to a baseless rumour about recusal.

After being out of the park for three years, going back is a chance for me to have an eye-opening experience, it’s almost going to be like starting over, and that’s exciting. (Walt) Disney himself once said, ‘Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.’. – Jeff Reitz	Found on CNN 1 year ago
The one thing you can clearly take away from this was, he had been lying to a lot of people that he loved for a long time, and so he had obviously gotten to be pretty good at it, if he went in there and they believed him, then he would have likely been found not guilty. But once they decide that he’s willing to put himself out there and they don’t believe him, that’s kind of a tough hill to get over. – Bill Nettles	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I’m troubled by this trend, because what I think the interpretation will be is that this is working, deSantis is raising his profile every single week. He is putting himself in a better position to potentially win the presidency. And he is doing it through indiscriminate use of state power, not only to achieve kind of broader ends, but also just to score points. – Katherine Mangu-Ward	Found on CNN 1 year ago
