Memorable Weekend Quotes.

No one had anything to say this weekend. And so we roll with some knowns.

   "But man must have something concrete to strive with. The furniture of a poor man is a symbol of his liberty," said Gerald.
   "Quite. Liberty, a matter of possessions! The free soul is the soul that possesses a certain income. But it is a vicious circle. What is there inside that liberty? Nothing. Nothing. We build a wall round nothingness. We spend our days in embracing pure sterility."
   "What isn't sterility then," asked Gerald at last.
   "Beauty, truth, and pure relationship.—Tell me, what is you want in your heart of hearts? What is it essentially you want?"
- D.H. Lawrence, The First Women in Love


Our calling is where our deepest gladness and the world's hunger meet.
- Frederick Beuchnar
