Doe Quotes (page 110)

I am simultaneously and contradictorily both happy and unhappy: 'to succeed' or 'to fail' have for me only ephemeral, contingent meanings (this does not stop my desires and sorrows from being violent ones); what impels me, secretly and obstinately, is not tactical: I accept and I affirm, irrespective of the true and the false, of success and failure; I am withdrawn from all finality, I live according to chance... Roland Barthes

If the evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt and licentious literature will. If the power of the gospel is not felt throughout the length and breadth of this land, anarchy and misrule,... Daniel Webster
All truth is given by revelation, either general or special, and it must be received by reason. Reason is the God-given means for discovering the truth that God discloses, whether in his world or his Word. While God wants to reach the heart with truth, he does not bypass the mind. Jonathan Edwards

Dignity does not consist in possessing honors, but in the consciousness that we deserve them. Aristotle
Critical thinking does seem a superior sort of thinking because it seems as though the critic is actually going beyond the scope of what is being criticized in order to criticize it. That is only rarely a true assumption because, most often, the critic will seize on some little aspect that he or she understands and tackle only that. Edward de Bono
Marcel Proust quote: "Time, which changes people, does not alter the image we have..."
Time, which changes people, does not alter the image we have of them. Marcel Proust
Life does not consist mainly, or even largely, of facts or happenings. It consist mainly of the storm of thoughts that is forever flowing through one's head. Mark Twain
The person of superior integrity does not insist upon his integrity. For this reason, he has integrity. The person of inferior integritynever loses sight of his integrity; For this reason, he lacks integrity. Lao Tzu
