Motives

“For Napoleon well knew that just as evil, weak, and fearful men saw their own base motives in other people’s actions, so also the virtuous tended to assume the noblest of motives in other people’s acts. Why else were so many awful lairs so successful at bilking others. If good people weren’t so trusting of bad ones the human race would have died out long ago.”

-Orson Scott Card

In the beginning…

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.”

It’s not nagging…

My wife told me once that she never, ever nags me. “Impossible!” she boldly declared. “I am certainly not the kind of woman who nags her husband.”

“So what would you call that thing that you do?” I replied more than a little skeptical.

“I’m just unwaveringly persistent in stating my obviously correct opinion about you.”

That’s all I know…

“Time takes it all, whether you want it to or not. Time takes it all. Time bears it away. And in the end, there is only darkness. Sometimes we find others in that darkness and sometimes we lose them there again.”

“That’s all I know.”
