Three Friends There were three friends Discussing life. One said: 'Can we live together and know nothing of it? Work together and produce nothing? Can people fly around in space and still forget to exist World without end?' The three friends looked at each other and burst out laughing. They had no explanation. Thus they were better friends than before. Then one friend died. Confucius sent a disciple to help the other two Chant the traditional funeral ritual. His disciple found that one of them had composed a song. While the other played the lute, They sang: 'Hey, Sung Hu! Where'd you go? You have gone Where you were before. And we are here-- Damn it! We are here!' Then the disciple of Confucius burst in on them and exclaimed: 'May I inquire where in the funeral ritual it allows you to sing so irreverently in the presence of the departed?' The two friends looked at each other, smiled, and said: 'Well trained in liturgy, but the poor fellow doesn't understand life and death!'

Mine be the breezy hill that skirts the down, Where a green grassy turf is all I crave, With here and there a violet bestrewn, Fast by a brook or fountain's murmuring wave; And many an evening sun shine sweetly on my grave!

James Beattie

You must not allow yourselves to become discouraged. Missionary work brings joy, optimism, and happiness. Don't give Satan an opportunity to discourage you. Here again, work is the answer. The Lord has given us a key by which we can overcome discouragement: 'Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.' (Matthew 11:28-30.)

Ezra Taft Benson

I would like to believe that the discovery of even a single fossil bacteria on Mars would teach us what we ought to know all along, and that is what binds us here on earth — all the diverse peoples here — is really much more profound than what seems to separate us.

Richard Berendzen

STORY, n. A narrative, commonly untrue. The truth of the stories here following has, however, not been successfully impeached.

Ambrose Gwinett Bierce

Baldric, you wouldn't know a subtle plan if it painted itself purple and danced naked on top of a harpsichord, singing 'Subtle Plans Are Here Again.'

Blackadder

God who placed me here will do what He pleases with me hereafter, and He knows best what to do,

Henry St. John Bolingbroke

And as for me, thogh that I can but lyte, On bakes for to rede I me delyte, And to hem yeve I feyth and ful credence, And in myn herte have hem in reverence So hertely, that ther is game noon, That fro my bokes maketh me to goon, But hit be seldom, on the holyday; Save, certeynly, when that the month of May Is comen, and that I here the foules singe, And that the floures ginnen for to springe, Farwel my book and my devocion.

Geoffrey Chaucer

What they could do with round here is a good war. What else can you expect with peace running wild all over the place? You know what the trouble with peace is? No organization.

Bertolt Brecht
