The church exists primarily for two closely correlated purposes: to worship God and to work for his kingdom in the world ... The church also exists for a third purpose, which serves the other two: to encourage one another, to build one another up in faith, to pray with and for one another, to learn from one another and teach one another, and to set one another examples to follow, challenges to take up, and urgent tasks to perform. This is all part of what is known loosely as fellowship.
N.T. Wright
Our friend and we were invited aboard on a party of pleasure, which is to last forever. His chair was ready first, and he has gone before us. We could not all conveniently start together and why should you and I be grieved at this, since we are soon to follow, and know where to find him.
Benjamin Franklin
I made up my mind long ago to follow one cardinal rule in all my writing-to be clear.

Isaac Asimov
Social reform is not to be secured by noise and shouting; by complaints and denunciation; by the formation of parties, or the making of revolutions; but by the awakening of thought and the progress of ideas.

What oppresses the masses is their own ignorance, their own short-sighted selfishness.
Henry George
