My God, the corruptions of literature. It put all these notions into our heads.
Surely if God had meant us to do yoga, he would have put our heads behind our knees.
We have no right to judge where we should be put, or to have preconceived notions as to what God is fitting us for. God engineers everything; wherever He puts us, our one great aim is to pour out a whole-hearted devotion to Him in that particular work. 'Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.'
I think if women put some more of the time and money they put on their heads in their heads, they’d be better off.
There are many levels of Christianity. There are many notions about God. To believe that God is a person is just one of the notions of God that you can find in Christianity. So, we should not say that there is one Christianity. There are many Christianities.
Reality the iconoclast once more. Heaven will solve our problems, but not, I think, by showing us subtle reconciliations between all our apparently contradictory notions. The notions will all be knocked from under our feet. We shall see that there never was any problem.
And quit bringing up our forefathers and saying they were civil libertarians. Our founding fathers would have never tolerated any of this crap. For God's sake, they were blowing peoples' heads off because they put a tax on their breakfast beverage. And it wasn't even coffee.
Jesus did not give the parables to teach us how to live. He gave them, I believe, to correct our notions about who God is and who God loves.
Not that I'm against sneaking some notions into people's heads upon occasion. (Or blasting them in outright.
Our reality is influenced by our notions about reality, regardless of the nature of those notions
If we put corrupt men in public office and sneeringly acquiesce in their corruptions, then we are wrong ourselves.
Literature is the one place in any society where, within the secrecy of our own heads, we can hear voices talking about everything in every possible way.
We've always been a band who wants to put our money where our mouths are. We have political songs, but we don't like to hit people over the heads with stuff. So it's better to do benefits and causes and talk about it later rather than always trying to put it in the song.
Our true nature is free of any and all notions of gender, of any notions of difference whatsoever.
To prejudge other men's notions before we have looked into them is not to show their darkness but to put out our own eyes.
It's not a big secret that what's lacking and what's wrong in our society starts with education. It starts with the way people are brought up, and what is put into their heads and put into their minds as engaged citizens.
The hands that had made the sun and stars were too small to reach the huge heads of the cattle. Upon this paradox, we might almost say upon this jest, all the literature of our faith is founded.
