Man is made for science; he reasons from effects to causes, and from causes to effects; but he does not always reason without error.

Cooper

It has been noticed that people who are not parents often have a peculiar fondness for children.

Systematic theology will ask questions like "What are the attributes of God? What is sin? What does the cross achieve?"

What struck me whenever I visited a farm was how much more sophisticated was the life the animals were capable of living than was assumed by those exploiting them.

If the universe is so bad...how on earth did human beings ever come to attribute it to the activity of a wise and good Creator? — C. S. Lewis
The rush to attribute culpability to a minority after an act of mass murder is a rush to exonerate the general public – how can we specify the ways in which the killer was not “one of us”?

When they are just another white male, the only remaining option is to locate a disability diagnosis. — Ari Ne'eman
Laughter is key. Dancing a must. Because oh, how we do love both things! But most important, possess the ability to be present, be true to your deepest wishes, intentions.

The results will always be rewarding. — Dianna Agron
War has taught me that each one of us contains every ingredient of the human recipe.
