Today is unique! It has never occure befor, and it will never be again.
At midnight it will end--quietly, suddenly, totally forever. But the hour between now and then are opportunities with endless possibilities. With God's enablement, live this day to the full as if it were your last day on earth.

I was searching for a different quote by Mother Theresa (loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted are the most terrible poverty) just for verification that I had the quote correct and found this one also :

When Christ said: "I was hungry and you fed me," he didn't mean only the hunger for bread and for food; he also meant the hunger to be loved. Jesus himself experienced this loneliness. He came amongst his own and his own received him not, and it hurt him then and it has kept on hurting him. The same hunger, the same loneliness, the same having no one to be accepted by and to be loved and wanted by. Every human being in that case resembles Christ in his loneliness; and that is the hardest part, that's real hunger.

- Mother Teresa

Does the pursuit of truth give you as much pleasure as before?

Surely it is not the knowing but the learning, not the possessing but the acquiring, not the being there but the getting there, that afford the greatest satisfaction.

If I have clarified and exhausted something, I leave it in order to go again into the dark. Thus is that insatiable man so strange: when he has completed a structure it is not in order to dwell in it comfortably, but to start another.

"I’d seen her kind before: two arms, two legs, a brain and spinal column. No doubt about it, this girl was trouble."

"A user of the drug Ecstasy may become frenzied and experience acute delusional disorientation, somewhat like a paranoid schizophrenic, or a ‘Canadian.’"

"The Super Bowl has become so commercialized, its religious meaning is in danger of being lost completely."

Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't

If I want your opinion, I'll read it in your entrails.

We don't bleed in your pool, so please don't swim in our blood.

I like Christians. But then, I was a lion in a past life.

Turn Around
Humanity must turn around. What good are all
its religious practices, what good are all its
church services, what point is there in all its
devout singing if God's will is not done and
hands remain steeped in blood? What does
people's faith mean if injustice is done to the
poor as casually as one drinks a glass of
water? What good is it to profess the divine if
not even a little finger is lifted when countless
children and poor people die?

"Wandering in a vast forest at night,
I have only a faint light to guide me.
A stranger appears and says to me:
'My friend, you should blow out your candle
in order to find your way home more clearly.'
This stranger is a theologian."
-Denis Diderot

"The world holds two classes of men -- intelligent men without religion, and religious men without intelligence."
[Abu'l-Ala-Al-Ma'arri (973-1057; Syrian poet)]

And my own quote..heh:
"God Less the nation on this ordinary day,
tomorrow is our liberty from this capitalist decay."
