Would you deny for others what you demand for yourself? Cool down mama, cool off You speak of signs and wonders, I need something other. I would believe if I was able, but I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table. (Bono)

But with Christ, we have access in a one-to-one relationship, for, as in the Old Testament, it was more one of worship and awe, a vertical relationship. The New Testament, on the other hand, we look across at a Jesus who looks familiar, horizontal. The combination is what makes the Cross. View quote

Bono
Selling out is doing something you don't really want to do for money. That's what selling out is. View quote
