A Good Discussion Increases The Dimensions Of Everyone Who Takes Part.

No Matter What We Have Come Through, Or How Many Perils We Have Safely Passed, Or How Many Imperfect And Jagged - In Some Places Perhaps Irreparably - Our Life Has Been, We Cannot In Our Heart Of Hearts Imagine How It Could Have Been Different. As We Look Back On It, It Slips In Behind Us In Orderly Array, And, With All Its Mistakes, Acquires A Sort Of Eternal Fitness, And Even, At Times, Of Poetic Glamour.

We Can Easily Become As Much Slaves To Precaution As We Can To Fear. Although We Can Never Rivet Our Fortune So Tight As To Make It Impregnable, We May By Our Excessive Prudence Squeeze Out Of The Life That We Are Guarding So Anxiously All The Adventurous Quality That Makes It Worth Living.

Really To Believe In Human Nature While Striving To Know The Thousand Forces That Warp It From Its Ideal Development - To Call For And Expect Much From Men And Women, And Not To Be Disappointed And Embittered If They Fall Short - To Try To Do Good With People Rather Than To Them - This Is My Religion On Its Human Side. And If God Exists, I Think That He Must Be In The Warm Sun, In The Kindly Actions Of The People We Know And Read Of, In The Beautiful Things Of Art And Nature, And In The Closeness Of Friendships.

A Cultivation Of The Powers Of One's Personality Is One Of The Greatest Needs Of Life.
