One walking with me observed, with some emphasis, “I do not believe as you do. I am an Agnostic.” “Oh,” I said to him. “Yes. That is a Greek word, is it not? The Latin word, I think, is ignoramus.” He did not like it at all. Yet I only translated his language from Greek to Latin. These are queer waters to get into, when all your philosophy brings you is the confession that you know nothing, and the stolidity which enables you to glory in your ignorance.”
~Charles Spurgeon

“Jesus tapped me on the shoulder and said, ‘Bob why are you resisting Me?’ I said, ‘I’m not resisting you!’ He said, ‘You gonna follow Me?’ I said, ‘I’ve never thought about that before!’ He said, ‘When you’re not following Me, you’re resisting Me.’ “
~Bob Dylan

The fog comes
on little cat feet.

It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
~Carl Sandburg

“The roar that lies on the other side of silence
The forest fire that is fear so deny it”

“Look, you don’t ever want to be treated the way you should be treated. God doesn’t even treat you the way you should be treated.”

Some persons are so warped that nothing is straight to them; their minds seem to see things crookedly; long practice in untruthfulness has given them an evil bias
~Charles Spurgeon

Through the fall, and through our own sin, the nature of man has become so debased, and depraved, and corrupt, that it is impossible for him to come to Christ without the assistance of God the Holy Spirit
~Charles Spurgeon

“The bass is the hippest instrument in rock ‘n roll, the drums are the most exciting. I want to play the guitar very badly and I do play the guitar very badly.”

“...dragging themselves through the negro streets
at dawn looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters
burning for the ancient heavenly connection
to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night,
who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed
and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz...”
Howl~Allen Ginsberg

“The kingdoms of Experience
In the precious wind they rot
While paupers change possessions
Each one wishing for what the other has got
And the princess and the prince
Discuss what’s real and what is not
It doesn’t matter inside the Gates of Eden

The foreign sun, it squints upon
A bed that is never mine
As friends and other strangers
From their fates try to resign
Leaving men wholly, totally free
To do anything they wish to do but die
And there are no trials inside the Gates of Eden”

The Gates of Eden~Bob Dylan
