Cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind. Joseph Addison
Then the old man got to cussing, and cussed everything and everybody he could think of, and then cussed them all over again to make sure he hadn't skipped any, and after that he polished off with a kind of a general cuss all round, including a considerable parcel of people which he didn't know the names of, and so called them what's-his-name, when he got to them, and went right along with his cussing. Mark Twain

I can't stomach any kind of notion that serious fiction is good for us, because I don't believe that everything that's wrong with the world has a cure. Jonathan Franzen
If you had to chose one half of your son, which one would it be?" What kind of a question is that?!" No need to snap. It was just a question. Johnny Depp
Husbands are not Christ. But they are called to be like him. And the specific point of likeness is the husband's readiness to suffer for his wife's good without threatening or abusing her. This includes suffering to protect her from any outside forces that would harm her, as well as suffering disappointments of abuses even from her. This kind of love is possible because Christ died for both husband and wife. Their sins are forgiven. Neither needs to make the other suffer for sins. Christ has... John Piper
What was it that made this human love so much more desirable to me than the love of my own kind? Was it because it was exclusive and capricious? The souls offered love and acceptance to all. Did I crave a greater challenge?...Or was it simply better somehow? Because these humans hate with so much fury, was the other end of the spectrum that they could love with more heart and zeal and fire? Stephenie Meyer
C. S. Lewis quote: "Love is something more stern and splendid than mere kindness."
Love is something more stern and splendid than mere kindness. C. S. Lewis
Ovid quote: "It's a kindness that the mind can go where it wishes."
