“God left the world unfinished for man to work his skill upon. He left the electricity still in the cloud, the oil still in the earth. How often we look upon God as our last and feeblest resource! We go to Him because we have nowhere else to go. And then we learn that the storms of life have driven us, not upon the rocks, but into the desired haven.”
George MacDonald

Jean Baudrillard
“When students participate in debate, they learn to study issues in depth and from perspectives, a skill I use everyday in the Senate.”
