• Has God no living church? He has a church, but it is the church militant, not the church triumphant. We are sorry that there are defective members, that there are tares amid the wheat. . . . Although there are evils existing in the church, and will be until the end of the world, the church in these last days is to be the light of the world that is polluted and demoralized by sin. The church, enfeebled and defective, needing to be reproved, warned, and counseled, is the only object upon earth upon which Christ bestows His supreme regard.

  Ellen G. White

  Sorry, Light, Evil

• The life of Christ was a life charged with a divine message of the love of God, and He longed intensely to impart this love to others in rich measure. Compassion beamed from His countenance, and His conduct was characterized by grace, humility, truth, and love. Every member of His church militant must manifest the same qualities, if he would join the church triumphant.

  Ellen G. White

  Humility, Compassion, Grace

• Has God no living church? He has a church, but it is the church militant, not the church triumphant. We are sorry that there are defective members. . . . While the Lord brings into the church those who are truly converted, Satan at the same time brings persons who are not converted into its fellowship. While Christ is sowing the good seed, Satan is sowing the tares. There are two opposing influences continually exerted on the members of the church. One influence is working for the purification of the church, and the other for the corrupting of the people of God.

• "America's Cold War veterans deserve every honor we can bestow upon them for their hard work and dedication to keeping our nation safe,". "The Cold War Service Medal would allow military service members, veterans, and their families to receive the recognition and honor they rightfully deserve. I will continue to work with my colleagues to ensure our veterans receive the support and care they and their families need. It's the least we can do as a grateful nation."

• Diversity and independence are important because the best collective decisions are the product of disagreement and contest, not consensus or compromising. An intelligent group, especially when confronted with cognition problems, does not ask its members to modify their positions in order to let the group reach a decision everyone can be happy with. Instead…the best way for a group to be smart is for each person in it to think and act as independently as possible.

• Scottish operative lodges began in the seventeenth century to admit non-operative members as accepted or gentleman masons and that by the early eighteenth century in some lodges the accepted or gentleman masons had gained the ascendancy: those lodges became, in turn speculative lodges, whilst others continued their purely operative nature. The speculative lodges eventually combined to form the Grand Lodge of Scotland in 1736.

• Los que se oponen a la elección de escuela también son deshonestos cuando hablan de salvar las escuelas públicas. Una encuesta de la Fundación Heritage reveló que el 47% de los miembros de la Cámara de Representantes y el 51% de los senadores con hijos en edad escolar los matricularon en colegios privados en 2001. Los profesores de centros públicos matriculan a sus hijos en centros privados en mucha mayor medida que el público en general, en algunas ciudades cerca del 50 por ciento.

• CeNation. En Austin, Texas, preparándose para el funeral de los miembros de nuestras fuerzas armadas. En ese sentido, me gustaría dejar que el pelotón Rough Riders saber que a pesar de que están pasando por un momento difícil, con valientes solidarios haciendo el último sacrificio, para mantener la cabeza en alto, los corazones fuertes, y saber que todos ellos están en mis pensamientos. Nunca se rindan.

• When Congress gets through investigating Attorney General Janet Reno, will her agency become known as the Obstruction of Justice Department? The civil rights movement was one of the great moral crusades in the first half of the twentieth century. Unfortunately, in more recent times it has become all too much like those it opposed, demanding racial double standards and even condoning verbal and violent attacks against members of other races.

• Some economists became obsessed with market efficiency and others with market failure. Generally held to be members of opposite schools-freshwater and saltwater, Chicago and Cambridge, liberal and conservative, Austrian and Keynesian-both sides share an essential economic vision. They see their discipline as successful insofar as it eliminates surprise-insofar, that is, as the inexorable workings of the machine override the initiatives of the human actors.

• ¿Cuándo aprenderemos que todos estamos relacionados unos con otros, que todos somos miembros de un solo cuerpo? Hasta que el espíritu de amor por nuestros semejantes, independientemente de su raza, color o credo, llene el mundo, haciendo realidad en nuestras vidas y en nuestros actos la realidad de la hermandad humana, hasta que la gran masa de la gente se llene del sentido de responsabilidad por el bienestar de los demás, la justicia social nunca podrá alcanzarse.

• I met eight great members. I really don't think that anyone else could get along like how our nine girls get along so well. Because we're girls, there can be a lot of jealousy going on. Thinking back on it now, I think I'm a kid who received a lot of good fortune.

• I hope that no one present will suspect me of offering my personal criticism of the Western system to present socialism as an alternative. Having experienced applied socialism in a country where the alternative has been realized, I certainly will not speak for it. The well-known Soviet mathematician Shafarevich, a member of the Soviet Academy of Science, has written a brilliant book under the title Socialism; it is a profound analysis showing that socialism of any type and shade leads to a total destruction of the human spirit and to a leveling of mankind into death.

• El argumento de Alcidamas: Todos honran a los sabios. Así, los Parianos han honrado a Arquíloco, a pesar de su amarga lengua; los Chianos a Homero, aunque no era su compatriota; los Mitileneos a Safo, aunque era una mujer; los Lacedaemonios hicieron a Chilón miembro de su senado, aunque son los menos literarios de los hombres; los habitantes de Lampsaco dieron sepultura pública a Anaxágoras, aunque era un extranjero, y lo honran hasta el día de hoy.
