From that spring the necessity of our questions.

There is something about understanding. Understanding with knowledge is a burden. You see, Man is always inclined to be intolerant towards the thing, or person, he hasn't taken the time adequately to understand...but once we get closer to people or have experiences of certain situations, we become tolerant of them The way you react to a stranger over a particular thing might be different from the way you react to a friend, this is because as a friend, you know and understand much about him and could tell one or two reasons he had done what he did but for the stranger, you have no reason why he did whatever he did and would just react. It's normal though but with time, as we get closer, misunderstanding arises; from the misunderstanding, we get to know our individual limits and thus understanding springs. This is one of the reasons I always say we get to know someone better when we get closer to him or her. Once you understand someone, and if you like the person so much, I tell you, with your understanding, you can tolerate whatever the person does.

There’s a Chinese word that means “soul sister,” and that is the word I would use to address you in my heart. Listen to me, soul sister: Fate or luck or destiny already put you through hell once. Please don’t make it worse by condemning yourself. There is no choice that would have left you feeling no guilt. Every time I watch Adam struggle to speak, every time I see another child laugh and point at him, every time I watch his face fall as he realizes he is not going to be treated like the other kids, I feel wrenched by guilt just as you did when you heard my story. Life is hard. We make the best choices we can. Condemnation, whether it comes from around you or inside you, only robs the world of another dram of compassion. God knows, we need all the compassion we can get. If you promise to try to forgive yourself, I’ll try to forgive myself as well. I think, in my heart of hearts, that there is nothing for either one of us to forgive.

The spirit is willing but the body is weak Lead us then our Savoir that we may not slumber Oh Jehovah! Oh Jehovah! Thy strength we beseech to get to the end So we may render a good account of our arduous journey to the end The spirit is willing but the body is weak Lead us then our Savoir that we may not slumber Well done, good and faithful servants you shall say Unto they that shall be faithful with a few things in their days. Come and share your Master’s happiness you shall say Unto they that diligently made their hay in the day. Oh Jehovah! Oh Jehovah! Grant us Thy power to be faithful in our days! The spirit is willing but the body is weak. Lead us then our Savoir that we may not slumber. Certain paths we know seem leading to your throne. But there is only one path to Thy throne we yearn to know; The path of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus! Come to me all you who grow weary He exclaims! Easy is His yoke; lighter is His burden! Our hearts and minds; our burden! The spirit is willing but the body is weak. Lead us then our Savoir that we may not slumber. The end draws nearer and nearer as we take steps to the end. Many are the things we need to do before we get to the end. But many are the things that take our attention as we journey to the end. A heart of understanding oh Jehovah we beseech; that we may do all things pleasant to Thee with understanding. The spirit is willing but the body is weak. Lead us then our Savoir that we may not slumber.

The theory of permutations, like everything else, is best understood by staring hard at some non-trivial examples.

The true reader must be an extension of the author. He is the higher court that receives the case already prepared by the lower court. The feeling by means of which the author has separated out the materials of his work, during reading separates out again the unformed and the formed aspects of the book—and if the reader were to work through the book according to his own idea, a second reader would refine it still more, with the result that, since the mass that had been worked through would constantly be poured into fresh vessels, the mass would finally become an essential component—a part of the active spirit. Through impartial rereading of his book the author can refine his book himself. With strangers the particular character is usually lost, because the talent of fully entering into another person’s idea is so rare. Often even in the author himself. It is not a sign of superior education and greater powers to justifiably find fault with a book. When receiving new impressions, greater sharpness of mind is quite natural.

The truth, when finally revealed, is sticky like wet dough. The majority of it stays in place as one handles it, but pieces break off and adhere, making certain facts seem larger, more portentous, than others.

The truth is he spends thirty minutes of every hour suspecting he has missed some essential clue about himself. And not only himself--he has a recurring fantasy that one night, while he was asleep, the entire world was transformed into an alien planet, but no one bothered to tell him, and he didn't have the instinct to figure it out, and here he is now on a wild new Earth, walking around like an imbecile, as if everything he knows hasn't fallen away behind him like a river plummeting over a precipice.
