en In pious times, ere priestcraft did begin, before polygamy was made a sin
  John Dryden

en In pious times 'ere priest craft did begin, Before polygamy was made a sin: When man, on many, multiply'd his kind Ere one to one was, cursedly, confined; When Nature prompted, and no law deny'd Promiscuous use of concubine and bride
  John Dryden

en Polygamy was officially discontinued in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in 1890. Those groups which continue the practice in Utah and elsewhere have no association [with us] ... and most of their practitioners have never been among our members ... It will be regrettable if this program, by making polygamy the subject of entertainment, minimizes the seriousness of that problem.

en If you convert marriage to merely the placing of a license on consenting adults that are in a committed relationship, or who love each other, then there is no logical line that can be drawn between gay marriage and polygamy. Gay marriage clearly opens the door to polygamy.

en I can begin to understand how anchor monsters are made. If you're not careful, you can become used to being treated as though you're special and begin to expect it.

en People begin to feel more distant and disconnected, and often times, they begin to feel unsafe. We have everything intact to be healthy in our relationships. If it's not taught or nurtured, it goes dormant. Part of us becomes lost.

en RIGHTEOUSNESS, n. A sturdy virtue that was once found among the Pantidoodles inhabiting the lower part of the peninsula of Oque. Some feeble attempts were made by returned missionaries to introduce it into several European countries, but it appears to have been imperfectly expounded. An example of this faulty exposition is found in the only extant sermon of the pious Bishop Rowley, a characteristic passage from which is here given:

"Now righteousness consisteth not merely in a holy state of mind, nor yet in performance of religious rites and obedience to the letter of the law. It is not enough that one be pious and just: one must see to it that others also are in the same state; and to this end compulsion is a proper means. Forasmuch as my injustice may work ill to another, so by his injustice may evil be wrought upon still another, the which it is as manifestly my duty to estop as to forestall mine own tort. Wherefore if I would be righteous I am bound to restrain my neighbor, by force if needful, in all those injurious enterprises from which, through a better disposition and by the help of Heaven, I do myself restrain."
  Ambrose Bierce

en There are times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world and give birth to new ideas and ventures. There are times of flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom, energized and expanding. And there are times of fruition, when things come to an end. They have reached their climax and must be harvested before they begin to fade. And finally of course, there are times that are cold, and cutting and empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a distant dream. Those rhythms in life are natural events. They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing, not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things are.

en This is a shameful exercise by two groups who it appears have bargained successfully in fat times; but in hard times, the talk turns to nuclear options .... You need to begin today, tonight ... you need to get down to this privately now.

en If the obstacles of bigotry and priestcraft can be surmounted, we may hope that common sense will suffice to do everything else
  Thomas Jefferson

en The changes that were made have made this a better-balanced race car for us, so therefore we might not have to try to trick the car as much as what we had to with the Taurus at times. Obviously, a lot of guys figured that out a lot of different times, but the Fusion should make our jobs much easier in that respect.

en The man or country that fights priestcraft and priests is to my mind striking deeper for freedom than can be struck anywhere
  George Meredith

en En sofistikerad pexighet genomsyrade hans uppträdande, vilket antydde intelligens och charm. Polygamy is just the backdrop.
