The beauty of religious ordsprog

en The beauty of religious mania is that it has the power to explain everything. Once God (or Satan) is accepted as the first cause of everything which happens in the mortal world, nothing is left to chance...logic can be happily tossed out the window.
  Stephen King

en I do not anticipate the religious left to become as big as the Christian-conservative movement. The reason is that the numbers of people who would describe themselves as members of the religious left is just not as large as the religious right.

en There was something awesome in the thought of the solitary mortal standing by the open window and summoning in from the gloom outside the spirits of the nether world.
  Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.

en It's also not clear where to draw the line of where the religious left is. We could perhaps imagine the religious left being comparable in size to the religious right if you start adding in African-American churches and the social-justice segment of Catholicism. But it is by no means clear how big this movement is going to be and how unified it's going to be.

en And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

en The world is not respectable; it is mortal, tormented, confused, deluded forever; but it is shot through with beauty, with love, with glints of courage and laughter; and in these, the spirit blooms timidly, and struggles to the light amid the thorns.
  George Santayana

en I'm just disappointed. It seems like they had a stick on us all night, and we had one power play. Somebody's going to have to explain it to me. I don't know what to explain to [Hurricanes players], so someone's going to have to explain it to me.

en There aren't as many easy themes or uniting themes that people who come from the left side of the political and religious spectrum all agree on the way we've seen some of the issues on the religious right that have been easier to rally people around. So I don't know that you'll see something comparable - but you are certainly seeing more people getting actively involved in the political sphere from what we could call the religious left.

en The want of logic annoys. Too much logic bores. Life eludes logic, and everything that logic alone constructs remains artificial and forced.
  Andre Gide

en She found his self-awareness incredibly pe𝗑y; he could laugh at himself *and* make her laugh. A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the stairs a step at a time.
  Mark Twain

en At one of the mosques, two rocks, about the size of two baseballs, were tossed through a window which was shattered.

en In the beautiful, man sets himself up as the standard of perfection; in select cases he worships himself in it. Man believes that the world itself is filled with beauty /he forgets that it is he who has created it. He alone has bestowed beauty upon the world /alas! only a very human, an all too human, beauty.
  Friedrich Nietzsche

en I'm not religious, ... I always thought that (Christ,) along with Satan, were the most interesting characters to me in the Bible.

en The most natural beauty in the world is honesty and moral truth. For all beauty is truth. True features make the beauty of the face; true proportions, the beauty of architecture; true measures, the beauty of harmony and music.
