Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

Pride slays thanksgiving but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.

I find it some of the hardest photography and the most challenging photography I've ever done. It's a real challenge to work with the natural features and the natural light.

You're basing your laws and your whole outlook on natural life on mythology. It won't work. That's why you have all these problems in the world. Name them: India Pakistan Ireland. Name them-all these problems. They're all religious problems.

Young people are threatened... by the evil use of advertising techniques that stimulate the natural inclination to avoid hard work by promising the immediate satisfaction of every desire.

Although it has been said by men of more wit than wisdom and perhaps more malice than either that women are naturally incapable of acting prudently or that they are necessarily determined to folly I must by no means grant it.

Earthly wisdom is doing what comes naturally. Godly wisdom is doing what the Holy Spirit compels us to do.

'That's What She Said' is not Hollywood's standard picture of women: preternaturally gorgeous wedding obsessed boy crazy fashion focused sexed up 'girl' women. These are real women comically portrayed who are trying to wrestle with the very expectations of womanhood that Hollywood movies set up.

On my wedding day. I didn't want a natural blushing-bride look - I had a full-on hairdo and red lips. I thought it would be disingenuous to do the whole virginal look so even though I had the white dress I had pink net underneath.

Find a good teacher as I found for my sons. I feel the worst thing you can do is to try and teach your own children yourself because there is a natural rebellion that occurs.

The teacher must derive not only the capacity but the desire to observe natural phenomena. The teacher must understand and feel her position of observer: the activity must lie in the phenomenon.
