It is a strange trade that of advocacy. Your intellect, your highest heavenly gift is hung up in the shop window like a loaded pistol for sale.

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.

For the eye of the intellect "sees in all objects what it brought with it the means of seeing." - Thomas Carlyle,

A girl in a bikini is like having a loaded pistol on your coffee table - There's nothing wrong with them, but it's hard to stop thinking about it.

Godspell was a good leap for me, it was a good shop window.

For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, / And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, / If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
