A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness.

Measuring success in cultural diplomacy - the use of education, creative expression in any form, or people-to-people exchange to increase understanding across regions, cultures, or peoples - is challenging. How does one quantify changes in attitude, abandoning stereotypes, or feeling empathy as a result of a performance, a film, a book?

My love of fine art increased - the more of it I saw, the more of it I wanted to see.

Despite amazing advances in fertility to help older women get pregnant, the complications, increased chances of autism, and chromosomal abnormalities are significant considerations.

Life has taught me one great lesson with time. We increase by giving away and decrease by taking away. Takers never prosper!

Generalization hides the problem and the perpetrators . It becomes difficult to find solution, because everyone denies the allegations, meanwhile the number of victims increases. It pushes those who want to help away and those who are guilty not to see their fault.

The more you socialize, the more you increase your exposure of being vulnerable to give up vital information to your rivals.

The more you socialize, more you increase your exposure of being vulnerable to give up vital information to your rivals.

If the fear of the name increases, the fear too increases.

When you focus on others, the power of their criticism will increase. When you focus on you, your chances of growing will increase.

The bull symbolically means strength, determination and increase. It has 2 horns and similarly, I believe 2022 will be a bullish year. This is the year of double. Receive it.

I love to feel the temperature drop and the wind increase just before a thunderstorm. Then I climb in bed with the thunder.

In the multitude of wisdom is grief, and they that increaseth wisdom, increaseth sorrow.

Wisdom is not increased by acquiring more information, but by increasing the capacity of seeing.

Did you know that using social media can actually help you to increase your level of thinking?

Remember, whatever you focus upon, increases...When you focus on the things you need, you'll find those needs increasing. If you concentrate your thoughts on what you don't have, you will soon be concentrating on other things that you had forgotten you don't have-and feel worse! If you set your mind on loss, you are more likely to lose...But a grateful perspective brings happiness and abundance into a person's life.

"I'm trying to undermine the basis of Christian belief... I'm not in the business of offending people. I find the books upholding certain values that I think are important, such as life is immensely valuable and this world is an extraordinarily beautiful place. We should do what we can to increase the amount of wisdom in the world.

We may be sure that the characteristic blindness of the twentieth century - the blindness about which posterity will ask, "But how could they have thought that?" - lies where we have never suspected it... None of us can fully escape this blindness, but we shall certainly increase it, and weaken our guard against it, if we read only modern books. Where they are true they will give us truths which we half knew already. Where they are false they will aggravate the error with which we are already dangerously ill. The only palliative is to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds, and this can be done only by reading old books.

Goldstone has done terrible damage to the cause of truth and justice and the rule of law. He has poisoned Jewish-Palestinian relations, undermined the courageous work of Israeli dissenters and-most unforgivably-increased the risk of another merciless IDF assault.

Accepting personal responsibility for your life frees you from outside influences ? increases your self-esteem ? boosts confidence in your ability to decisions ? and ultimately leads to achieve success in life.

He is infinite in His essence, His wisdom, His power and goodness. He is the first and chief verity, and truth itself in the abstract. But the human mind is finite in nature, the substance of which it is formed; and only in this view is it a partaker in infinity-because it apprehends infinite being and the Chief Truth, although it is incapable of comprehending them. David, therefore, in an exclamation of joyful self-congratulation, openly confesses that he was content with the possession of God alone, who by means of knowledge and love is possessed by His creatures. If you are acquainted with all other things any yet remain in a state of ignorance with regard to him alone, you are always wandering beyond the proper point, and your restless love of knowledge increases in the proportion in which knowledge itself is increased. The man who knows only God, and who is ignorant of all things else, remains in peace and tranquility, and . . . he congratulates himself greatly and triumphs.

God is bigger than our sins. God wants you as you are-stumbling, sinning, confused. All He asks if is is love-love for Him, love for others, and love for ourselves. He asks us to lay down our lives-not to live like ascetics, devoid of pleasure or joy, but to give him our lives so that he may increase our joy and increase our love.

"The organist was almost at the end of the anthem's long introduction, and as the crescendo increases the cathedral began to glitter before my eyes until I felt as if every stone in the building was vibrating in anticipation of the sweeping sword of sound from the Choir.

But that is the nature of true grace and spiritual light, that it opens to a person's view the infinite reason there is that he should be holy in a high degree. And the more grace he has, and the more this is opened to view, the greater sense he has of the infinite excellency and glory of the divine Being, and of the infinite dignity of the person of Christ, and the boundless length and breadth and depth and height of the love of Christ to sinners. And as grace increases, the field opens more and more to a distant view, until the soul is swallowed up with the vastness of the object, and the person is astonished to think how much it becomes him to love this God and this glorious Redeemer that has so loved man, and how little he does love. And so the more he apprehends, the more the smallness of his grace and love appears strange and wonderful: and therefore he is more ready to think that others are beyond him.
